I agree - the affect Larry describes happens, but is not that pronounced. My
system (4 6-Volt golf bats, 100 Amp Balmar, Link 2000R) charges initially at a
bit over 80 Amps, but spends about an hour gradually dropping through the 70's.
When the charge rate goes under 70 Amps, the bank is at about 80%.

To fully charge the house batteries
takes HOURS of SLOW charging to re-plate the lead which takes TIME!!

==========================================

That's true for a 100% full charge, but a more typical recharge going
from 50% up to 75%, only takes a little over an hour with a high
output charging system.
