Cam,
I see what you are saying, but i also think that is an unfair comparison. if a boat is swinging around, (when we are at anchor we only seem to swing when the tide changes every 6 hours or so) won't it affect the flat panels just as much, if not more? At least we can correct for the problem with the stick. And we regularly see that 5 amperage early in the morning, and the stick is usually at full throttle by 9. We've even seen better than 8 amps on the readout occasionally, but not for very long and usually when the batteries are pretty low from a day or two of bad weather.

Hello S,
Yes we are in Florida, and on the water, and have a clear view of the sunrise. I don't remember reading in the manual that it will tally the amp hours, but I'll recheck it and see what it says. we have not played with the voltage output setting on the 2000E and aoording to the manual it is factory set for 13.8 volts. I'll check it when I get back t the boat later today and let you know. By the way, thank you for the bumper info. I'll be removng them later today.
