Our Magnatek power converter is overcharging our batteries.... We just replaced the batteries this week,since our others were boiled dry. Anyone have experience, or ideas to fix??

Hi....older magnatek converters were basically dumb chargers....would overcharge and boil off the liquid in the batteries. Only solution is to check batteries frequently or replace converter with a smart converter.
check Bestconverter.com for replacement...they also have replacements using the old box.
