Wow it beats physics!! I love it when devices can do the impossible... I guess I need to try mine on the boat.......

Very Funny Maine. I guess you like taking things out of context. I clearly stated that it charged the batteries from what they had lost the night before, not from a discharged state. If you get to be such a "expert" we may have to ignore you entirely, but right now I still enjoy what you have to say and your web site.

Newt,

Apparently you missed

the wink (tongue in cheek)...

I only made that point because there are people here who will read that and believe they can completely charge their batteries in 45 minutes with an EU2000... Sad but true... If I had a dime for every time someone said to me "I used 100Ah's and I have a 100A charger, my batteries should be full in 1 hour", I'd be retired. Unfortunately it does not work like that and while I know you understand that, many don't......

I did not see any other qualifiers where you said you recharged lost capacity from the night before, and I quoted your entire text.

Clearly I missed that part, or it is somewhere else and I missed that.... Wouldn't be the first time.... D'oh....

Sorry you took offense, that was not my point at all....
