I have honestly out of habit just done the 12 amp setting, it works fine, just not sure if its better for the battery to charge it at a lower/slower rate. any advice would be great, thanks all, God bless.
12 amps is fine....that is really a low rate. I would not want to charge deep cycle batteries with anything higher than 15 amps. I charge mine at 5 amps...its takes it almost twice as long as your 12 amps does.
