Long time listener, first time caller. I have a AiLi battery monitor I installed recently. I have noticed some odd behavior I was hoping I could get some help diagnosing.
When I first installed it, I did a test by fully charging my battery (100 ah battleborn battery) and then turning on lights and my fridge and watch the behaviour of the AiLi battery monitor. It performed as expected: the percentage on the battery monitor tracked downwards with the expected voltage. All is good..
I then charged my battery back up and turned off everything (lights, fridge, etc.). There is a small draw from some passive electronics in my fridge and other misc. draws in the range of 0.09-0.15 amps so, now, around a month since charging the device my voltage is down below 12.0V which is approaching 0% for my battery. This is expected due to the small draw on the system X the few weeks of time. The odd thing, though, is the AiLi battery monitor is still reading ~96% full despite seeing the ~0.09-0.15 amps of current on the battery monitor. Does anyone have any thoughts as to why the battery monitor isn't tracking the correct percentage despite seeing the draw on the monitor (albeit, it being small)?
Note: Wiring is correct and the preset voltage setting was left at the 0v so I don't think that is contributing to the issue.
