I have a dual alternator setup, but I am also considered a small gel cell standby battery to purely power my standby instruments (elec gyro and lights). I know...I'm a belt and suspenders type of guy, so please no "overkill" comments.
Question is this...I would be interested in seeing what solutions people have employed to charge these small onboard gell cells?
I understand that you should not charge them at a rate greater than 10% of their capacity (.3 amp charge for a 3 ah battery), so that effectively eliminates the regular onboard charging system for the very small batteries.
Thanks,
