You should at least check the option BB on the Astron. The backup option gives 13.8V current limited at about 3A. We just replaced four deep cycle batteries in parallel after about seven years of service being kept alive with the BB option.

Last night my power supply took a dump! Good thing for backups.
Anyways, what I am wanting to do is put 3 marine batteries together
to run the power for the repeater with a charger to charge the
batteries. If I use a 12 Volt Car charger, do I risk the chance of
noise, or would the batteries filter that. What would be a good
source to charge these batteries? The power supply that will be
taking the place of the worthless Pyramid supply will be an Astron
52 Amp Rack Mount Supply. I have heard in the past that batteries
have been charged with these power supplies, but not sure if this if
true or not. Any ideas? Thanks.
