So my question - Is the inverter input voltage reading accurate enough to believe the 0.3V voltage drop on the 12V input side and is that a reasonable number or should it be a 0.1V loss?
Part of the difference is due to calibration error, or lack there of. The only way to know for sure, is use a separate meter with long enough leads to measure directly form the positive terminal on the battery to the positive terminal on the inverter. The do the same for the negative connections.
Even with a full load on the inverter, I would want the voltage drop on each leg to be LESS THAN 0.1V !
