pdi converters etc.
I replaced the original chargers with (2) 55 Amp models. I
purchased Iota Brand, very simular circuitry, if not functionally
identical, to the PDI units.

My bank is 480 Amp Hours.

If you plan on using lead-acid cells, it makes no sense to exceed
27% of the banks total Amp Hour rating with charging Amps. This is
because of the internal resistance of lead-acid cells. They simply
will not accept the additional amperage.

The internal resistance specs of AGM cells is a different story.
They have much lower resistance, and therefore, will accept a much
greater kick in the pants ... but that's another story for another
day.
