Hi,

I remember reading about Always Being Connected/Charging (ABC).

What benefit does this have?


I have left my car plugged in using a 32amp commando and the UMC, stopped it from charging to see what would happen.
I was hoping that the car would be powered from this instead of using the batteries but I could see battery level going down still during the day.

I also tried setting it up for charge but leaving the charge level below what it currently was set to, just incase this was the issue.



What I ideally want is to power the car from the wall instead of adding additional charge cycles to the car that can be avoided.
If what I done above is correct, then why was my charge level still going down?
