Have not yet selected a battery, but for looked up info in Lifeline Technical Manual. They state "Due to the low impedance design, Lifeline batteries can tolerate in-rush current levels as high as 5C (500A for a 100Ah battery)"
This agrees with some other info I found that charging rate for flooded cell batteries is 8C or 10C and AGM's (like Lifeline) are 5C.
So I will do my homework - figure out my energy needs, select a battery (probably AGM), read the manufacturer's technical literature on charging, and then choose the charger.
Thanks for advice.
