I am looking forward to the day when someone makes a a/h meter that communicates
with the charge controller and/or inverter charger so they are all on the same
page about charging. How many times have I gotten a call from a customer saying
"the generator is on but the batteries won't take a charge", to which I say,
"how do you know the batteries need charging".

Meters tend to drift badly in the winter when they never zero out. It is one
lacking thing about system metering. I think we might do lots better with a
specific gravity probe in a battery cell that displays as SOC.
