The battery is brand new last month - an Interstate Marine/RV. I picked up a 2nd battery (same brand/model) last month because a few weeks ago we attended a music festival and no generators allowed. So the new battery was the one I was using on this latest trip along with my Honda gen.
The fan is what is running so I'm assuming it's "running". Of course the weather here in SW Michigan has been in the low 90s for about 5 days in a row. Maybe that's why the fan is on.(?)
I've got a Schumacher charger and will charge up the battery in the garage. Could be that when towing I didn't give it enough time to charge back up, but I would think plugged in at home it would have charged up by now (about 4-5 days). When I unplug the monitor shows 2/3 charge.
Tomorrow it's supposed to be cooler (mid-70s) so I'll drag my neighbor over to help with checking proper voltage. He likes the mechanicals that I'm not knowledgeable about. Thanks for everyone's input.
