This is where an AMP HOUR METER makes it's bow. It will display simple checking account balance numbers that verify

OVER DISCHARGING

INADEQUATE RECHARGING

in such a simple and easy to understand format that it does not need a Gyro Gearloose nerd to interpret the numbers. Use and misuse needs to be displyed to and understood by the user.

"Gee the batteries are not recharging enough" or "oh my god, I am draining them dry" is a hell of a lor better than "Huh? What the hell?"

Amp hour meter install FIRST without question.
