Dpends on how "smart" the charger is, if it is just a float charger and
doesn't monitor the battery voltage and you wanted to drop the float voltage
to about 13.2V a diode in the charge cable will do it. there are different
sorts of diodes that will give you a lower voltage drops. but the "normal"
diode is about 0.8V drop(l think)


Don't you mean a resistor?

Bob

He certainly does NOT! Many diodes will drop the voltage by
0.4 ~ 0.5vDC when forward biased.
