Not Quite. My old WFCO 8955 had three settings: bulk when the batteries were below 12.4 volts resting voltage, with the inverter showing voltage between 13.6 to 14.2 volts. If the resting voltage was above 12.4 and below 12.7 volts resting, the converter go into equalization mode and the inverter would show 14.2 volts. When the resting battery voltage was above 12.6 volts, the converter would go into float mode and the inverter would show 13.3 to 13.6 volts depending on inside temperature. This was with the original Harris, group 27 12 volt flooded batteries. You will have to draw a 12 volt battery down to around 12.2 volts (60%) to watch the charger go through its profile. When I converted to a 50 amp coach, I used the PPS 5375 power center. It works about the same except it monitors battery temperature to determine the charging profile of the VRLA sealed group 29 batteries.
