   * charging AGM at C/5 (min rate) resulted in the battery being 77.4% "full" at Vabs and being fully charged in **5hrs, 42 minutes** (76min Bulk, 4hr 26mins Absorption)
-Note that the **using 2x the charging current only sped up the whole process by 12 minutes (3.6%)** due to Vabs starting earlier but taking longer. Getting to Vabs faster could be [[electrical:solar:pwm_tweaking|preferable on PWM controllers]].

-Also note that for simple, timer-based Absorption configurations((like 180 minutes)) the slower charging regiment would actually complete more Absorption.((180/266mins rather than 180/310mins))
+* **Getting to Vabs faster** could be [[electrical:solar:pwm_tweaking|preferable on PWM controllers]], as the system would be making max power for a longer period of time.
