There are certain parameters which are programmed in to the ECU to vary the charging voltage, IMO all in an effort to increase MPG standards for CARB/CAFE. I am going to send an email to Z automotive and see what they can do, although doubtful any progress will be made as I am sure the request to maintain constant charging voltage would be low but never hurts to ask. Will start doing some research and see what else I can do.What's the bead on this? I noticed that the JL was constantly sitting at 14+ volts attempting to charge these two batteries. However, since returning from my very long trip to the Rockies and about (5K + miles) this seems to be no longer the case, as the voltage settles down within an hour or two.
As you said I dont have a problem when out on long trips but when I am home and the wife uses the jeep as a daily driver (She has shorter commute and loves driving it haha) her commute is only 5-7 miles and remains parked with fridge on 24 hours a day non stop. Thats when the ARB has kicked off due to low voltage.. I changed the setting to low last weekend so will see how far I can stretch it.
