Hmmmm, kinda awkward when it's pouring rain outside. ;)

My deep cycle batteries are about 6 years old, and likely near end of their life, hence the 11.8v and only taking about an hour to charge with a stand alone battery charger.
Which may be the perfect excuse to replace those aged flooded batts with a pair of AGMs that would be a lot safer to locate within the same box as the inverter and allow you to leave the lid closed. :D
Agreed!! That's definitely the next step in this process.
