Please be patient, brain injury makes it difficult to comprehend things that may be obvious, appreciate your help and patience. I have the 700 setup on a LIFEPO4 50amph pack. After charging with a Victron MPPT 100|20 controller to 13.85v I set the 700 (holding down the plus and minus buttons) so it reads 100%. I then put a small load, 1-2amps, and watch the voltage drop. The voltage is now 13.14 and the "gauge" shows 99.4%, I am obviously doing something wrong, any help would be appreciated.

No, that's totally normal. If voltage didn't drop at all from charging to discharging it would mean your batteries were 100% efficient!

Hello, I was wondering why the gauge does not show a drop when the voltage is so low.
