Your 122AH Walmart batteries are likely 122 at the 1 amp rate. Probably 100AH at the 20 hr rate you should use on the monitor as the capacity.
Good suggestion! I will set my battery capacity monitor to 200AH as "full".

No my suggestion was to confirm the AH at the 20hr rate. It should say on it, or else it should give the RC in minutes and the group size (27, 31 ??) The AH could be 122 at the 20 hr rate if it is a big battery.
If all it says is the RC in minutes, we can figure out the approx AH at the 20hr rate.
If you set the capacity low, then you will think you are full before you are and ruin the batts from undercharging.
