Earl Schell To be sure, charge the battery all the way, and then see what happens...it may be lower than you think. Adjustment probably isn't the answer. And if it's time to replace, go for one of the Zeftronics solid-state units. Besides being a pretty gold color, they're kinder to your batteries and electrics (I have a digital voltmeter aboard, and have had both a mechanical and a Zeftronics in place, and I can attest that the electronic unit is much better regulation of the bus voltage).
