I have a Victron SmartSolar 75/15 charging 2x Travelbatt TB25MF batteries.
These are apparantly Heavy Duty Flooded Wet Cell Lead Acid batteries.
I also have them connected to the alternator via a Split Charge Relay.
How do I find out the % charge on these at any time?
From what I understand, the only way to do this is to have zero load, and zero input (i.e. no solar coming in), and measure with a standard voltmeter.
This doesn't seem practical for a number of reasons. Or is the voltage on the SmartSolar all a realistic and correct voltage, if there is no load on the system? It doesn't appear to be correct, but perhaps I am wrong.
And what is the 100%, 50% and 0% voltages for this type of batteries?
Thanks in advance.
