Why is the converter 12 V reading so much lower than the reading taken by my inverter and solar charge controller which are wired directly to the batteries?
Easy. Move your voltmeter along the connection between the two. Eventually you will find some point with 12.1 on one side and 12.9 on the other. Tighten, repair, replace, clean, or adjust that component or connection.
