That's the kind of scene I want to avoid, and having the charger end up as an expensive door-stop or being put up for sale at a loss. The Elcon distributors seem to be very tight with their "programming tools". It would seem either some adjustment knobs or a USB/computer reprogramming feature could be provided to the user at additional moderate cost. I think the lack of this is probably going to knock me off the fence into negative territory.

I hope someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the Elcon is a
Chinese charger imported by some of the same folks who are/were behind the
US distribution of Zivan chargers.

Quite some years ago, a friend of mine bought a Zivan for his EV's 6v golf
car batteries.  He thought the finishing voltage was too high, and spent a
great deal of time and money arguing with the distributors and shipping the
charger to and from them.  They outright refused to set it up the way he
asked them to.  They told him - in almost as many words - that they knew
better than he what his batteries needed.
