Too many people act like voltage is like a gas tank gauge, and there is a direct realtion to voltage and state of charge,even when loads or charging sources are present.
Amps flowing at a voltage is much more enlightening, how many amp hours the monitor thinks have been taken out of the battery since the last full charge, is simply wonderful.
Is it worth 200$...??
Insert strong opinion here with widespread snarky insults to anybody who disagrees with me here.
For my opinions are facts, your opinions are like leaves in the fall. Without consequence and can't hold water.
And your mother dresses you funny.
Dang where'd that 6v vs 12v thread go. :)
