The now-discontinued "Mark 15" and "Mark 22" controllers are 1-stage chargers: ON or OFF, with only one setpoint for Battery Charging Voltage. It will not charge until the batteries are below 13.0 volts, and it will not stop until the batteries have reached 13.6 - 15.2V. (Adjustable, but the default is 14.4 - too high!). Dumb as a brick, but smaller.
