Hi Patrol22, I've looked at the Projecta DC20 and it looks to be a very capable and cost effective unit.
In my situation, I would need to run the Projecta in conjunction with a solar regulator as
well, so I'm not sure how the 2 chargers will get on with each other. I'm sure others will not have that problem.
I was wondering if the Projecta would accept solar input using a change-over relay similar to the RedArc, however, as Pojecta do not explicitly describe that situation and its input voltage is limited to 17v max, I'll pass on that.
Previously I had a RedArc SBI12 + solar regulator, so with only 1 'brain' I expect the solar regulator would cut out; with the Projecta and solar regulator (2 brains) it could get a bit schizoid? Both the Ctek and RedArc, as discussed above, specifically state they accept solar inputs so that would work better for me.
