There have been lots of reports on this forum and others of the WCFO not starting in the 14.4v mode and then not going into float charge - which can boil your batteries. Mine starts out at 14.4v and switches to 13.6 in a few minutes, no mater how low the batteries are. Then it will not go into float charge (13.2v). I am going to replace my WCFO with a Progressive Dynamis PD4655 before I go on my next long trip. Then I can manually charge at 14.4v for an hour or two when I run my generator at a campsite and use all the 55amp capability of the charger. Currently, my WCFO will only charge at 13.6v and use a part of its 55 amps.
