Hi just have the first reading on my phone from SmartSolar. Not sure how to read what shows. This reading was about 10am damp rainy day in Devon, Friday 20th.
Looks good to me. You'll shortly go from Bulk to Absorption and then Float. I'm guessing you've got a 100w panel. I'm in Devon and currently showing 34w on Bulk with a 100w panel.
Edit - now showing 45W as it starts to brighten up.
I've got a 185w panel. Just checked the status of my van on the driveway... it's very overcast in Birmingham. I'm only pulling 19w in Bulk charge mode.
Note that when your battery gets nearer to being full, the charger will switch to Float mode. As the battery is nearly full, it only needs a trickle charge to top it off, so you'll see disappointing wattages being produced, even if it's brilliant blue sky. This is expected.
