Split Charge Challenge

[Markymark]

We are in Dieppe and the batteries are reading:

Voltage = 12.8

%= 97.5

Happy calculating for the bottle of wine.

is that reading after letting the battery rest for 24 hours after charge for a true reading?

18 hours only.

18 hours only.

that's quite good for the factory charger, i was only expecting it to get up to 80%

Just to be clear. I charged up on EHU. Drive to a friends house had supper, loaded his gear etc then drove to Newhaven and checked the voltage when we got to Dieppe. That was about 18 hours after turning off the EHU.

Now driving 530 miles and want to see if the split charger does anything. So the 97.5% was at Dieppe before driving.

Will the split charger push it up to 100 or wil it just keep dropping at a constant rate based on the fridge usage. It all remains to be seen. We

Sorry meant to post this earlier but have been busy in the slopes.

Checked the battery % on the drive down and it went up from 97.5 to 100% so I presume the split charger did it’s job and charged the batteries back up.

So it looks like Ann3x was the nearest with 83%.

Interestingly no one predicted an increase in charge.

Anyway I’ll get in touch with Ann3x and pick up the plonk for her.
