I'm aware of GC bateries and what they cost but not spending $ on anything new till these give up the ghost. Same with $150 meters.
I don't understand what makes everyone think it's not working well. I think I could have carried that 7a load for 9 hours or more without worrying about battery damage, I just quit the test.
Getting into these batteries in their compartment to check water is a PITA so no hydrometers in my future.
From other reading I've done the voltage drop under load I'm seeing is not that unusual. Anyone else ever check their's?
This is a small rig and the batteries and load center are about 4 feet away from each other.
