Re: Charge controllers and Equalization

I believe most mppt controllers have that feature (Both my Blue Skys' do). Equalization is used only with Flooded lead acid batteries to periodically "condition" the batteries. It helps get rid of bubbles in the electrolyte formed while charging them. Both my Blue sky have a feature to disable that feature which you do NOT want to use with AGM or GEL, will damaged those type of batteries.
