OK, I'll reply to myself. At least you aren't arguing with me about the proper charge voltage for my Interstates like they did on the solar forum.
http://www.batteries-faq.com/activek...p?questionid=1 direct from Interstates website. Haven't had the guts to crank my controller up to 15.5 volts for absorb for long though.
So far so good, 3.25 hrs at 11-12 amp draw from the inverter, fans and light plus parasitics. 12.29 volts with loads on, 12.48 with only the fan and parasitics. Looks like I still have 80% charge to run the fans and parasitics all night, at most a 2 amp draw when the refer runs.
Now to see final voltage in the morning and let the panels charge away.
