Re: Charging Battery
The charger should cylce that is full charge (13.8-14.2) then cycle to float (13.2-13.4) if its a smart charger. You can test it with a volt meter both plugged up and unplugged to get the reading. You will still have to monitor the water levels in the battery at least once a month. It is actually better to leave it plugged up to keep the battery fully charged when not in use. While you are testing check the starting bat to see if it is being charged some coaches don't charge the engine bat. If not you might want to look into a small float charger or a little solar panel you plug into cigarette lighter. Just make sure the socket get its power from the engine bat and not the coach bat. Mine doesn't charge the engine bat so I have a solar panel in the cab over window to keep it fully charged.
