We had two Concorde RG35s go bad in the first year or so on John Halle's Legacy and upon doing some research (better late than never)  we found that they do not like being charged higher than 13.8 volts.  We had been charging at 14.2.  We reset the B&C regulator to 13.8 volts and several years and several hundred hours later everything is doing just fine.  As they say, "When all else fails the instructions are probably still in the wastebasket."  Around the shop I use a regulated power supply that puts out 13.8 volts instead of a regular automotive battery charger.
