You may have to be careful of the overvoltage protection device if you go too high, I don't remember what it fires at. I turned the voltage up on my VS-50M Astron to overcome the voltage drop in the Rigblaster PRWgate PG40 that I use between the power supply and battery. I float the battery at 13.8VDC. I've had no problem for a couple of years so far. The VS-50M is basically the RM-50M with the voltage adjustment on the front panel.
