Bob,

I'm not sure what you mean by AC & DC charging.  The converter is designed
to convert AC to DC and pump it into the battery.  If you are hitched up and
plugged in to the puller's electrical system, there is a direct DC
connection that provides limited charging to the battery.

AFIK there is no DC charging capability in any converter..."converter" means
it converts AC to DC.

The Inteli-Power does that conversion more efficiently than the Uni, and is
much quieter.  The Charge Wizard is a plug-in that controls the
Inteli-Power.  It will monitor the state of the battery and switch the
Inteli-Power to the appropriate output.  It's inexpensive (less than $30 I
think) and well worth it.  It also provides a visual means of indicating the
battery state.
