More charger questions

[Leroy Eckert]

My BB manual says that activity is normal but I do not know why. The prior
owner installed a Trace inverter/charger in place of the original factory
system, that according to my files was a Heart.
That gauge in my coach does not move much. Never has since I have owned the
coach. However, my Trace LED monitor panel for the inverter/charger has several
different colored lights. During the charging process the red dc string
gradually diminishes to nothing when the charger goes to float charge. It acts
like that gauge. Once on float charge, the red lights re-appear and shows dc
voltage useage. (ie. when the compressor for the toilet air runs, it shows a15
amp dot.)
I am challanged after the mid -range of electrical knowledge is reached.
I haven't worried about it because everything is cruising along fine. If it
ain't broke, I'm not messing with it.

Hate to split up the thread, but the other one was getting long.

My 86 PT38 has what I assume are the original battery chargers. I have
noticed, though, that on the 'D.C. Charge' gauge above the co-pilots
chair, the juice being applied to the batts trails off over time,
presumably as the batts get closer to full charge. Why is this if the
chargers put out a constant flow of juice?
