I have brand new 600ah AGMs and 420 watts solar. BMV has me at 80% SOC but MPPT controller seems to be going into float prematurely. It looks like the battery voltage on the MPPT is quite a bit higher than what the BMV is saying and my guess is that this triggers the Float. MPPT goes from 200 watts down to zero. I then see, within seconds, the voltage drop on the MPPT and the watts cycle up again.
Ultimately the SOC doesn't rise above 80% as the MPPT stays in float.
This can't be normal. Thoughts?
