WELL... its an ohms law situation... the resistance of the battery changes to the charger... as the voltage in the battery rises, the charger will put out less current.. when the voltage is equal, there will be no flow... voltage is the pressure of the two vessels... if one is higher it will flow to the lower pressure vessel... The more the pressure difference, the faster the flow (current). (assumes wire size is big enough) HOWEVER the source has a variable controller or regulator that can change the limit/ vary the total flow rate(current) for safety. This allow it to then charge a battery at lower voltage at a higher FIXED current rate, and then as the battery voltage comes up, it allows it to slowly equalize it...
Now add to that a controller that allows for bulk charging at a higher top voltage say about 14.7 and then switch to a float voltage later of around 13.8 to 13.6 and you have the best of all worlds. Throw in a heat sensor to allow for slightly higher voltage in cold weather vs slight less voltage in hot weather and you now start to get an intelligent system.

Today's Featured Article - A Brief History of Tractors in Australia - by Bob Kavanagh. After Captain Cook's exploration of the east coast in 1770 the British Government decided to establish a penal colony in Australia. The first fleet arrived in 1788 and consisted mainly of convicts who were poorly equipped and new little of farming techniques. The colony remained far from self-supporting and it was not until the early 1800's that things started to improve. Free settlers started to arrive, they followed the explorers across the mountains and where land was suitable set up farms. T
