Thanks Eric,

I kinda had a feeling I'd find out different about the SW's charging
efficiency.  Nice to see we are getting back on list and I am also
really enjoying the Bitches on the other list -- Kurt

Because the SW has three transformers of various ratios, peak voltage
isn't nearly as important for battery charging from the SW. The SW is
able to produce battery charging DC voltage from more of the input AC
voltage sine wave, rather than just the peak.
