 100% SoC (~12.7v) is measured [[electrical:12v:charging|after the bank has been fully charged]] and then rested. It is measured "on the way down";  measuring "on the way up" while charging will lead to false confidence and leaving the battery [[electrical:12v:psoc|less than fully charged]]. 100% SoC (~12.7v) is measured [[electrical:12v:charging|after the bank has been fully charged]] and then rested.

-The more challenging task is judging when to kill the circuit based on voltage **under heavier loads**.  It may take experimentation with your system to see where the battery voltage rebounds after removing the heavy loads.  An approach might be:+The more challenging task is judging when to kill the circuit based on voltage **under heavier loads**. Consider this chart:
