And that I did.

The tech stated that the third bank needs to "sense" a battery for the charger to function across the board and that the unused leads (3rd bank) needs to be tied in with one of the other two. The bank with the additional lead will not charge differently (according to the tech), receive higher or lower amperage (thus charging quicker or slower) or sense any other abnormality that one might associate with the dual hookup. Again for the entire charger to function correctly, all leads need to be connected to a battery source.

Now I realize this may go against what has been done in the past with some users and I certainly have no experience with this type (multi-bank)
charger. Just repeating what the manufacturer's tech department is saying.

Good

That is interesting.  I was told to cap off the extra lead...Course that was several years ago and they probably have updated the electronics since then.  Good info CB!!

The best thing about this thread is that Fitz got (IMHO)  good info and we learned something about these chargers. Myself especially.
It's what I enjoy the most about the Forum. :cheers:

Its all about the club.

 The sum of the parts is greater than the whole, and will continue to be.

 Nice work guys!
