battery charger replacement

[g]

Sorry, that came out not quite right. What I meant (I think) was that it seems
to me that the value of these FC's seems to be on a downhill slide. I don't have
the background to know if this is cyclical or it just seems that way as I look
at more work to get it where I want to be on my first Bird. And that IS because
the more I look the more I like. I swear that these units were built with at
least some plan to make an Old Maintenance Man smile and his (fill in the
blanks) go insane.

I really hate to stir up a much discussed (cussed) issue, but with 44
weeks of this treatment left I've got lotsa time and not much energy to
get back to the major projects on my Bird.
I do think I could handle a smaller job that has to be done, so here
goes.
I need to change the original battery chargers out to something that
fits more into the world we live in and won't boil my batteries dry.
Whats the final consensus on this issue. Keeping in mind that the more
projects I come up with( all new plumbing, black and gray water tank
repairs, water heater(s), genset and slide tray, redo headliner,
insulation in doghouse and genset, complete propane system
eval,inverter/converter, air intake mods, plus all the maintenance
issues the previous owner felt were too expensive to do) the lower the
value of my coach gets.
Any and all thoughts greatly appreciated as always.
