Great tip, thanks. As you suggested, the voltage started to drop rapidly and it went down to 12.75 v in about 7 mins then stayed there for the duration of the test (appx 15 mins). When powered back up it rose much quicker than it dropped and within a few minutes was back up to where it started - 13.82 v. Im guessing this is telling me that the circuit charging aspect of the system is functioning ok?
