I've noticed when I start my truck up in the mornings many times the tac will fall to zero and the voltmeter will start reading like it's only running on battery power. I have no grid heater so the grids pulling juice is not the issue. The generator light will come on along with this phenomenon some times but not always. Seems to depend on how long the voltage stays around 11-12 volts. Ideas on issues to check? I run one bigg 1100cca Dekka battery and a large 160+ amp (test sheet showed 195 amp peak) alternator.
I've also noticed that the voltage on the voltmeter reads higher during colder days and lower during warmer days. Truck has always done that with the stock two battery setup/stock alternator and the current one battery setup and big alternator. Is that normal?
