I've been monitoring the battery on my JLUR 2018 for some time now as I've noticed it's always at 13.9 to 14.1 volts while driving (even on long trips).
I've been doing this for the past 2k miles / 1.5months.
This morning was our first cold snap (Florida) at around 37deg F. After a 30 minute drive to work, the display still showed 14.6
Would this be an indication the battery(ies) aren't holding a good charge? Or perhaps a bad voltage regulator assuming that's how the alternator is being told when to ramp up/down?
This is my second JL. My old Sport would start at around 13.8 and drop after some driving (30 -1hr) to 12.8 to 13.2 area.
