Re: [VAL] Re Battery charging and testing



Bill,

I see by your vehicles that you are a man of taste and 
distinction. Perhaps this will help. The Univolt is kind of 
like a Dodge Powerwagon: Gutsy and strong, but  notabley 
lacking in subtly and finesse.  I hear the newer Univolts 
are a little more obliging but basically they exaust the 
batteries like the way the Dodge will destroy your back 
after an hour on bad roads.  The Intellipower 
charger/converter would be more like the Cadillac, babying 
the batteries with "gourmet" charging that will keep them 
happy for years.

If you think this messing and worrying with batteries is 
tiresome, then get the Intellipower and Charge Wizard, get 
yourself Ultima 's sealed batteries and be done with it. Did 
that three years ago and have totally ignored that system. 
Now, let me see if I can get some LED's into the back of my 
pantry shelves....
