At our mountain top locations, we have been using the various current 
capacity models of the supplies from 
http://www.iotaengineering.com/dls.htm          and have found them to be 
excellent for many years of service.  We use them to float charge LARGE 
battery banks at 12 VDC.  They provide tremendous capability in a very 
small, highly efficient package.

The 70 Ampere units have been extremely good for float charging 2,000 + Amp 
Hour battery banks.
