Fiat Ducato 2021 with Schaudt EBL119
Not a problem but more an education lesson question. My van is parked up on my drive. The solar charges the leisure only. So i have been keeping an eye on the starter battery.
On EHU it seems only to deliver around 13.2 Volts (read by multimeter - the Burstner guage says 12.7 but it always reads lower than the multi meter)
Now, I have also read that an AGM battery should charge at a minimum of 13.5. I am aware that the EBL prioritises the Leisure's but am just concerned that the starter battery could not be being kept in the best condition?
As soon as I start the engine the charge voltage jumps to a more respectable 14 volt plus.
Thoughts?
