    Or cut up some roast, put into one of those little aluminium bbq pans with a lid, make some mushroom sauce and put into another pan, they're only $3 pckt of 4, throw them in, some coleslaw and potato salad from the local deli and another great meal done.

    Yeh , did a mini roast with some vegies .... noice

    This time of year when I do my runs up to Port Stephens ( when the wind isn't galeforce) I do those mini style roasts & stews - I actually put them in the oven when I leave home & hours later - cooked to perfection when I arrive ....... just need to remember to restart after 90 mins .

    The good thing is that you still arrive with a fully charged battery.

    Definitely awesome to be able to have some hot tucker whilst out on the water..

    The only issue I had was the time it took to heat something up if we had not got the timing right to coincide with the hunger pangs.. ..

    I fitted one of these a year or so back and it speeds up the process quite a bit..you just have to be careful you dont burn the pies now..

    Was the voltage still rising..?..You sure it didnt just need a little more time to fully charge and for the charger to automatically cut out...?..

    How are they a dud ?
    100 ah battery and you put 91 into it
    you said they had 20 odd percent

    it will be your small charger which you bought when everyone said to go bigger
    The cheap bms in them would trickle in the last few percent

    14.7 is 100 percent changed

    It was on trickle charge for over 5 hours the bulk was done in the first 5 hours, start charge voltage was 12.68volts which is a flat battery

    Close enough as 13.6 is the average rested level

    overthinking things

    as long as it’s 13.6 a few hours after charge it’s good enough and your getting the sticker 100 ah

    doesnt really need another 300 pages about it
