Voltage Advice

[timmccall]

I have a Saratoga with an Alternator Controller 68804-04 (Regulator, Over Voltage and caution in one box) that is non adjustable. My voltage on the 930 and at the Cig Lighter shows 13.6V always. The glass panel with all normal operating items shows 22 AMPS and when I load it up, AMPS increase and voltage stays steady at 13.6. With that said, the voltage Controller is working as advertised as the maintenance manual says it should be between 13.6 and 14.2, standard voltage requirement. My question is that since it is non adjustable, and it is at the bottom of the scale, should I swap it out for a 1224 Plane Power controller (adjustable)? If so, should I set the voltage to 13.9 or close? My Six 300 was a constant 14.2V but it was an older system. Is there a problem with the voltage being at the very low or high end as far as battery longevity is concerned? I have a Concord 35AH AGM.

Thanks, Tim
