I posted a month or so ago about my new solar install, and some issues I was having with the low voltage alarm on my Xantrek 2000W Prowatt while running my coffee maker (Tassimo). I was able to check a little closer this time with a DMM, and confirmed that the E01 alarm (low I/P voltage) was coming on around 10.8V (not over 11 as originally thought)- although it was a little hard to hold the probes which running the coffee maker- either way, I think the inverter is working as expected (I think).

Thanks in advance

Marc, I've been reading about this stuff lately and am NOT an expert.
How come you are letting your batteries get down to anywhere near 10.8V - that isn't good for them.
What is the voltage level when your system thinks they are full?
Are you sure you are truly charging your batteries to there full capacity?
You may not be operating your batteries in their optimal voltage range.
I have no idea how many batteries or what type you need. I just think you should make sure you are charging and using them properly before you invest in new ones.
