Solargizer query

2 years ago I bought 2 solargisers to charge my AFV batteries. These
batteries are for a medium truck and not the full size
4?? AFV batteries.

The problem is that despite living in outback Australia the solargisers
never succeeded in keeping those batteries charged, even though the
batteries were new.

I have seen comments from lots of US owners that solargisers are great,
considering that there are lots of places in the US that have far less
sunshine than what I get, what is the problem?

- Solargisers were the wrong type and I need a "bigger" version for the
batteries I have?
- The ones I got were duds?

One of the solargisers has now failed.

By the way, I did isolate the batteries when on the solargisers so
that effectively I was charging one battery with one solargiser without
any mixing of circuits.

Regards
Doug
