 I'm still working on finding a suitable charger -- they say theirs is

Forgot to say that as a temporary solution, I'm using a spare PSU for my 
Lenovo laptop, 5A @ 20V, through a Genasun MPPT LiFePO4 charge 
regulator. It can put about 7.7A into the battery, and it's pretty clean 
RF-wise. The Genasun is rated 10A. 
Bionne says that the Powerwerx PG40S "Super PWRgate jumpered for AGM 
batteries is an acceptable charge regulator when used with a regulated 
PSU that can be set to around 15VDC. I used it for a while with a very 
used Astron (it had been repaired at least once). It worked fine until 
the Astron gave up the ghost. So I'm searching for a good alternative.
