Battery level indicator
Is the level indicator for the battery on the control panel as inaccurate as the other level lights? Was plugged in all weekend so should have had full charge. When checking after unhooking from shore power only 3/4 full.

I always thought that the battery indicator is pretty accurate, but there could be bad ones out there I guess.

Those indicators, both for battery and tank readings, are for entertainment purposes only. You can buy an aftermarket digital battery charge indicator which will be way more accurate for about $15. As far as tanks go, most here would agree they are worthless.

I agree with Nosticks. Those indicators are on the opposite end of the room from the TV. We get interesting, but phony stories at either end of the room.

I have found like Bingo that the battery is pretty good and also the fresh water tank. The black water is no good.
