I've got this devide here that I got on ebay.
Inside are two relays a capacitor and a zener diode.
The way it's supposed to work is
if battery voltage = 14.2vdc
then turn on dump load
if bettery voltage < 13.7vdc
then turn off dump load
I suspect the zener does the work of flipping the small relay, which then flips the big relay and the capacitor provides some sort of hysterisis(?)
If you'd like I can open the case again and do a hand drawing of the circuit
