All three of those readings refer to the same battery (your leisure one)

Volt is the present voltage on your battery system

Current is the amount going into or out of the system: + indicates there is a net charge, - the net discharge (you can be taking current from the battery and also charging from solar EHU or other source)

Power is the wattage being drawn from or added to the system, as above + = net addition, - the net discharge.

Effectively the current and power are different ways of showing the load or charge going from or to your battery.

The voltage of the battery is 13.11 Volts.. You are drawing 1.15 Amps. This is the equivalent of 15 Watts. Power in Watts equals Voltage x Current.
