My batteries were fully recharged around noon after being used most of night for heat. Heater (propane with 12V fan) turned on at 1 AM and ran about 1/2 the time until about 7 AM.
Outside temp got into the 30s.
And would hate to buy something off the internet that would fall short of my situation. Maybe a video would have helped showing deep cycle battery being charged with regular battery charger plugged into the controller or a live demonstration from a salesmen
