So ask yourself, which means more to you, quick dump with quick charge, or slow discharge with slow recharge.


I'm sorry but that's not true. The aux charger makes a pretty big difference depending on the setup. On the setup I first had the aux charger: it reduced charging time by 50% and on my current setup I've sped up charging by 80%-100%.

More importantly the amount work the controller does is reduced which helps reduce the chances of hitting thermal limits.

The aux charger may not be for everyone but to state it doesn't do anything is wrong.

But don't just take my word for it... Feel free to ask others who have it.
