DollarBill1 Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 I have a PSC15 on 4 batteries and I was wondering if I have to disconnect anything to use the recovery mode or is it ok to leave everything hard wired?

Facekicker Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 If batteries came from different sources, were exposed to different conditions, and are now being put into a common bank, I'd condition them separately. As it sounds, theyve been in same bank, you wont have issues running it with them connected unless 1 particular battery has taken a full shit.

DollarBill1 Posted February 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Thanks for the help guys. Yes these batteries have been in the same bank and charged every couple of weeks. My concern was that my truck has been parked a few weeks and when I turned on ignition before starting my SMD VM1 was showing my voltage at 11.6-12 even after a charge but running it was showing 14.7-14.8. Put a DMM on all my batts today and they show 12.8 and the vm1 is at 11.8 so I think the vm1 is faulty.

bigirb2002 Posted February 24, 2016 Report Share Posted February 24, 2016 how often should you do this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris@xspower Posted March 16, 2016 Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 As long as you keep your batteries maintained, you technically never really need to do it. However, if the occasion arises that you have a deeply discharged battery the recovery mode will work best as it inputs a very small amount of amperage to keep heat down incase the battery is sulfated.
