Subject: Small smart  charger with equalize mode?

It's been a while since I equalized my big ol' Trojan vented lead-acid
deep cycle battery mainly because I don't have a wall-powered charger
that has that function. My solar controller does, but it's a pain in the
neck to use at home, requiring that I set up the panels on the driveway,
and not very useful at all when it's overcast. I don't equalize when
camping for fear of damaging the reefer and other accessories from
overvoltage.

I do have a pair of little smart chargers mounted in the van, which keep
the two batteries (engine and house) on float when the van is not being
used. But this weekend when I did set up the panels for an equalization
cycle I noted that the specific gravity of the six cells in the battery
was not well-matched and it took about four hours to balance things out.

So I'd like to replace one of the little smart chargers in the van with
one that also offers a manual equalization mode. Does anyone have a
recommendation?
