I'd like to know the source of this as well. My shack power is 100W of
Siemens PV on the roof, a 10A charge controller diode-ORed with a Samlex
1235 set to 13.62V. The output charges a 75AH Optima battery, which
powers the equipment 24/7. I've never had any trouble with it in the
four years I've used it.

Perhaps it would be overkill to consider one of these for my purpose
anyway, but based on this thread my interest was piqued about using
one of these in the shack to cover short power outages. I've learned
that you CANNOT charge and feed a load at the same time, i.e float
charge.
Hi Wes,
Where did you learn this? References I can study? I looked and didn't
find anything saying that, and that's what I plan to do with the 100Ah
battery I just bought.
