I guess I really don't understand all the buzz words and acronyms and such. I know what amp, ohn, volt and watts are. The battery stuff leaves me blank. What does cold cranking amps mean? What about amphour? I recently swapped my 115 ah battery for an 85 ah battery on the advice to get a smaller battery. I am using the Harbor Freight kit. The 115 ag battery was holding at about 12.8 volts. The 85 ah battery started at about 13.2 volts and now is holding at 12.4 volts. Was the 115 am a better battery? Same brand, CostCo deep cycle marine battery.
Also. Is there a charge controller that displays the battery voltage AND the output coming from the solar panels? I bought a Stanley amp/watt display. I can get amps to display but when I switch it to watts it stays at zero. What would be a better unit?
