The converter is a "three mode" device, not "three phase". It will only produce one DC voltage at one time. The voltage will vary as the battery's state of charge varies.
How did you check the batteries? What DC loads are present when the lights flicker?
Thanks for the question. I checked the batteries by disconnecting them at the terminals and checking water level. The voltage was steady . . . 13.4 volts or so.
I disconnected the batteries and the wf9865 converter powered the DC loads. I then connected the batteries up.
I turned on all of the DC loads I could think of . . . lights, hood fan (Is it DC?). The converter voltage varies (down then up)by about 1.5 volts. Maybe it is trying to go thru the different modes.
I guess another test would be to disconnect the batteries at the terminals and check the converter again to see if the voltage changes. I would expect the converter output would be constant.
