OK, OK...I checked it again. Since it is a collectors' vehicle I don't drive
it much. ;-)  Anyway...resting for at least 24 hours I have 12.69 at main
bat and 12.6 at aux b4 starting.  Then 13.55 at main and 13.55 at aux while
running.charging.  Hope it helps. BTW-Pumping 360 watts to my Polks from the
aux while running.
