HI.
I just installed my MPPT 100/50 and had a couple of questions about tail current.
1.
If the Tail Current dictates when the batteries need to flip over into Float. Why is there an Adaptive Charge setting at all?
I think Adaptive Charge sets the time for Absorb based on a multiplier of the morning voltage of the batteries and Max Absorb Time.
Turn Adaptive off and just the Max Absorb Time is used.
In both instances, Tail Current (if switched on) would flick the batteries into Float mode. But Adaptive mode could time out before that tail current is hit,. Wouldn't that mean that the Absorb time was too short?
With Tail Current available to dictate when the batteries are full, why would you need an Adaptive mode at all?
2.
How does the Tail Current work if the sun goes in and the current drops. Does it just switch to Float prematurely?
