I submitted my question regarding using the equalize (desulfating)
mode on my Statpower with lead acid house and Optima chassis
batteries. Here is what Ann-Marie sent me:
Yes a lead-acid equalizing cycle can damage sealed batteries. If
left on, the Combiner(s) would apply those voltages to the Optima so
to be safe, they should be disconnected while equalizing.
I'm not sure which combiner you are using but later models have a high
voltage shut off. This can be connected to the sealed battery to
protect it from high voltages that could come through the Combiner.
