Yesterday it was in absorb mode all day, but never got full. It was charging at 2.8a at the end, which is a fair bit more than the parasitic loads.
Voltage was 14.4. Morningstar bases its voltage on 14.4/77 degrees. I have to be in absorption mode to see it. The day before, it was in bulk mode all day, hence the lower voltage. Today it would finally get caught up, but we are moving on.
I also have an eBay pwm controller, same one as eco worthy sells. It drops to 13.8 when the sunsaver would be staying in the 14s. I'm on my phone, tired of typing. When on pc, I will comment on lack of float mode. In short, it doesn't matter for my use. Think about it.
