I'm pretty familiar with how to check it all, just haven't been forced to look into it before. The wiring is all oversized and new, batteries are 6-T125's, nearly new. Not sure what is the limiting factor, but I'm sure time and whacking away at it will get it in better shape. I also am having trouble figureing out why the 100 amp charger of the inverter cuts from bulk much too early. Got lots to think about. Gene
