New controller? Looks like it was added today.

I can keep a fairly good track of how things are going, but I would not claim to know exact anything. Don't need to know exact anything either. If the morning voltage keeps getting lower day by day because it has been cloudy lately, then at some point I will haul out my PowerMax 100 amper and get caught up.

Correct. And it gets easier when you know your daily draw. By looking at the solar "summary" in the evening, I can tell how much of this went into battery because I know my daily draw. There are no gremlins in my rig. There is none or very little need to check these numbers either, in my case, because the system was designed so as to provide full charge on most days. In footsteps of SMK ;)... When solar summary tells me that it reached Abs but not Float, I know that SOC is more than 90%. At this point, and with the fact that it will be up to 100% if not tomorrow then the next day - without Powermax - I'm not concerned about SOC. Don't need a battery monitor to tell me something that is either known, or not important.

I sure don't need to hook up my laptop to the solar controller and do a bunch of geeky stuff! :)

Because Trimetric is doing this geeky stuff, thou, sinner!
I didn't feel like using a laptop interface so far. The controller is placed out of sight so that I have to go out of the rig and open the hatch to have a look at it. The idea was that such a placement would stop me from doing every hour something that isn't needed to be done at all.
