HS...ok....well I thin the problem witht the voltage is that BULK stage on AGM's should be 14.4V and Absorbtion should be the lower value but AGM mfrs are increasingly saying you can keep it at 14.2 or so even during absorbtion with float voltage declining to the 13.3 range.

Just so all understand...BULK is the heavy loading stage where the battery is between 50 and 80% full. Absorbtion is where the battery begins to show resistance to high charge rates and goes from around 80-90% and Float is the finishing stage at lower voltage and minor amps to bring the battery to 100%.

This should not affect any of the power measurements you've done...but certainly explains the issue I was questioning.
Here's a chart Balmar uses for their regulators charging different types of batteries:


Primary Program Settings
.........................Universal, Deep Cycle Wet, GEL, AGM, Optima AGM
Bulk Voltage (Max) 14.1............. 14.6 .........14.1...14.4 ....14.6
Absorption Voltage 13.9............. 14.4 .........13.9... 14.2... 14.4
Float Voltage........ 13.4............. 13.4......... 13.7...13.4.... 13.4
