I have a WFCO WF-9855 converter and it only charges at 13.7v. I assumed this was because it wasn’t a 3 stage charger, but when I checked the specs it is supposed to bulk charge at 14.4v and 55 amps. With the batteries at 50% it only runs at 13.7 at less than 20 amps. I was going to replace it with another brand but now I’m thinking there might be nothing wrong with it. I’m guessing that the problem might be that it’s too far from the batteries.
So I’m considering moving it to the front bay next to the batteries instead of replacement, which I was going to do anyway with a new one. Does anyone know if this will work? Or is this just a crappy converter? This was never a problem in the past but we’ve started to do more boondocking and it was taking so long to charge with a generator that I have been using my portable 40a charge instead.
