This has been bothering me for a while -- this inequitable distribution 
of load because of taps for front lift, rear lift, and lights.  I use 12v 
chargers on 12v batteries, so they are more evenly charged, but the ET 
charger equalizes them by brute force.

I think the ET could benefit from a DC to DC converter, delivering 12-15 
volts for the accessories from the 36 volt pack.
