Question about Furnace Short Cycling..
In a previous post, someone mentioned that if your battery voltage is low, you will get short cycling. Short Cycling: (as i understand it) where the flame cuts off and back on during one heating cy...

Long thin wire to the furnace means a voltage drop. So if the furnace needs X volts to run right, your batts have to be above that by at least that voltage drop, so that can mean you can't do it when the batts get low and then the voltage drop takes the voltage to the furnace too low.
Cure is change to fatter wire or a higher AH battery bank or to a battery type with higher voltage per SOC.
You can also put your meter at various points along the furnace parts to see if there is a big drop that should not be there from one part to another. I had that and found a wire was not tight on one of the spade terminals so the next part had its voltage too low.
