Battery Chargers

What is the best smart charger for (2) 6 volt AGM batteries?&nbsp; <br><br>(links are helpful, thank you!)<br><br><br>Would I need two chargers?&nbsp; <br><br><br>

We have been using a progressive dynamics charger for a few years on two 6 volt golf cart batteries.&nbsp; You would need only one charger as the batteries would be in series for 12 volt use.<br>some info<br>http://www.batterystuff.com/tutorial_chargers.html<br>http://www.progressivedyn.com/power_converters_9200.html<br>on Ebay<br>http://www.ebay.com/itm/Progressive...cessories&amp;vxp=mtr&amp;hash=item256a0ce27f<br>These have a fan on them but it only runs if it needs to. The fan is pretty quiet anyway. I selected a 45 amp unit because it can run on a 1000 watt quiet inverter generator. We leave it hooked up as it will not overcharge.<br>Hope this helps.<br>

I've wonder why RV converters like this one don't have a battery temperature sense wire, due to putting out 45 amps. &nbsp; Also, factor in whether the batteries are mounted inside, or outside of the vehicle, you'd think they should. &nbsp;&nbsp;

<p style="margin: 0px;">I'm using an Iota DLS55/IQ4 which works well with AGM batteries.&nbsp; It's a smart charger and throttles back to a few milliamps to maintain a charge.&nbsp; </p><p style="margin: 0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin: 0px;">Iota sells different sizes depending on the size of the batteries that you need to charge.&nbsp; It's been pretty reliable so far except when I blew it up by trying to run my microwave off the house batteries and left the charger turned on.</p>
