Battery Charging and Equalization Guide
The following table lists several popular batteries by brand and type, and provides charging and
equalization guidelines:
Manufacturer Model Flooded/
Gel Comments
Trojan All deep
cycle
flooded Set to
FLOODED Equalize on each charge cycle to reach and maintain
maximum capacity. If 100% of capacity is not required,
equalize less often to reduce maintenance and increase
battery life.
West Marine
All deep
cycle
flooded Set to
FLOODED Equalize on each charge cycle to reach and maintain
maximum capacity. If 100% of capacity is not required,
equalize less often to reduce maintenance and increase
battery life.
Delco Voyager Set to
FLOODED This is a calcium/lead type battery and requires a higher
charging voltage than normal. Though performance should
be good, this battery will not reach full charge without
equalization. Set temperature to “Cold” and/or equalize on
every charge cycle to improve performance. Stop
equalization/charging when green dot appears in battery
hydrometer. Shake occasionally during equalizing (if
possible to do so safely) to ensure adequate mixing of
electrolyte at hydrometer.
GNB
Industrial
EVolyte For Charge:
GEL
For Float:
FLOODED
Set battery type to “Flooded” after battery reaches
“Ready”. Since charging cycle of the Prosine inverter/
charger does not match GNB’s recommended charge cycle
the following routine can be followed every few charge
cycles to maximize performance. Charge to “Ready” with
battery type set to “Gel”. Set battery type to “Flooded” and
equalize the battery for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Reset battery
type to Gel and turn charger OFF and ON again to reset to
Bulk charge mode. Battery will be ready in approximately
10 minutes.
GNB
SUNlyte For Charge:
GEL
For Float:
FLOODED
Can be equalized on every charge cycle to reach and
maintain maximum capacity. With battery type at Flooded,
equalize for a maximum of 4 hours. Manually turn off
equalize if charger does not terminate equalize after 4
hours. This is the recommended charge routine for this
battery as specified by GNB, but for convenience sake,
this battery can be left on FLOODED for both charging
and float operation with no apparent consequence.
GNB Action
Pac Set to
FLOODED Equalize every 1 to 2 months for heavy use, 4 to 6 months
for light use. Battery is fully charged at a specific gravity
of 1.265. If battery is not reaching full charge, equalize
more often or set to “Cold” temperature setting when
charging. “Warm” temperature setting (or optional remote
sensor) must be selected when battery is at float.
