Today in our 2018 242X sitting listening to music at the cove house battery dropped to 12.3 and went back to 12.4 stayed in that area for an hour or so. Does that mean my panel is working or not working? What’s a fair house number to see after 30 min to an hour sitting listening to music with the boat off? They went right back up to higher numbers as soon as I fired off the engines.

I barely touch my house battery when coving out.....we don't crank music when we do, usually really soft. I might go down .1 -.2, I'll have to check next time I'm out. But that is why I have a house battery!
