My setup is charging a 33 AH AGM battery via a West Mountain Radio PowerGate PG40S that feeds a distribution panel for the K3, P3 and other 12v accessories. The power supply input to the PowerGate is a PowerWerx SPS-30DM. The system can handle short power outages and keeps the battery correctly charged. I only turn the P/S on when using the rigs unless the PowerGate indicates a need for 'bulk' charging. When it goes to float, I turn the P/S off. I really see this as an uninterruptible P/S protection for the station. It was also helpful when I was chasing down an interference signal I was seeing by eliminating any source in the house (cut the AC mains and ran the K3/P3 form the battery.)
