That is a lot better.

If it were me, I would try setting to 12.2vdc which is 50% SOC for FLA.

I would then just watch and monitor. Use your RV like normal and see if you notice much difference as to when your AGS has to start up.

If you are finding out that you go from a full charge to 12.2vdc or 12.0vdc too soon you may find out your batteries are not capable of producing it's rated amperage anymore. if that is the case the batteries may already approaching it's ultimate demise. Ideally you never want ANY battery new or old to go lower than 50% (Lithium is the exception). When I bought my AGMs; I doubled my amp hr capacity to two 135amp batteries from two 65 amp hour batteries.

Note: I actually went from 12.2vdc to 12.5vdc with the new batteries because I never could get the AGS to at least occasionally start the generator 12.4vdc is 50% SOC for AGM and 12.2 is 50% for FLA.
