First I would like to apologize if this is a dumb question. We installed two 165 watt solar panels and a charge controller wired to two 12 volt batteries in parallel this winter. Charging light came...

I checked it this morning before heading out the door at the controller itself. The light was flickering so that means it was float charging it was jumping between 17.6 Volts and 18.5 Volts. Voltage out to the battery was steady at 11.7 Volts. Didn't even think about checking the actual voltage at the battery.
Like was said above, the controller gets it's power from the battery and the disconnect is on.
Red31 I will look into those controllers you and westend mentioned. Thank you. You mentioned changing the full charge cut from 13.7 to a higher voltage. What would you suggest bumping it up to? Just bump it up until the batteries are actually at 13.7?
