God’s alternator is working hard today
God’s alternator is working hard today … π
Cold but sunny! No starting problems for me today when I go out later.
Wednesday, when I last went out to check the truck and knock the snow off it, the accessory battery bank was at 12.4 volts and starting battery at 12.3 volts. It was pretty cold, it was 3 days since I ran the truck, I had the lights on a while while I unpacked my truck on Sunday evening.
Today, with the sun and power flowing from the solar panel, the accessory batteries are at 14.3 volts and the starting battery at 12.8 volts. It looks like starting battery is taking a little longer to charge, but that’s normal as the system is set to charge the accessory batteries first, then once the voltage in system is above 14.1 volts to dump the excess power into the staring battery.
