Battery voltage checking
Ok ,I have learned not to run a 12 volt battery below 12.1 to maximize lifespan. My question is : do you check voltage under load or at rest. Thanks,Mike

I purchased a LED voltmeter and installed in next to the batteries. It is wired directly to the batteries and can be viewed every time I walk past the
camper. My solar panel is connected to the batteries 100% of the time when we camp.
Battery voltage first thing in the AM is around 12.6 and back to 13.2 by lunchtime.
Being able to view the voltmeter gives me piece of mind that I have enough battery life for the evening.
