Nice pictures, looks like fun for all. But 10.8v?!?! What did it show when everything was turned off? That sounds like really pushing it into the 'dead zone'.
It rebounded to 11.9V
I think I need some more aH's if I am going to overnight in the teens with the furnace going...
Thoughts?
A lot has to do with the temperature of the battery . For instance , if your battery was at 30 deg F when it showed 11.9v it would have been at 70 per cent SOC . Also how long after having no load and no charge when you took the reading . In your environment and a 12v fridge , 2 batteries would be prudent , and keeping them warm if possible .
