That little box should contain some schottky diodes for protection against spikes and reverse connection, hopefully.

I am he, fear me
Powerall is supposedly one of the top brands in this market and because of that it is also one of the most copied/counterfeit.
Strangely for a Yank company their specs are very vague but, pfft, thats life these days.
If that one is a knockoff they went to great lengths to make it look genuine.
So lets assume it is genuine...then... you could maybe flick Powerall an email query or try and see if their online warranty rego will accept the device.
Like I said before I'm not convinced yours is bad just curious and if it still works then who cares anyway right?
Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

Yeah, I think it is a spike preventer as well but possibly not rev pol...
While reading up on the unit I recall the manuf has a 'version 3' lead for reverse polarity protection on his latest kits which looks different and also an advice/warning for customers with Ver 2 or earlier to consider upgrading as the early version don't have rev pol protection

Mmmmmmm, checked it just now again and still reading 12.28 although strangely enough its on 80% now according to the lights. Plugged it in for another charge as ET suggested and started reading 12.35 instantly. Will see what it reads later. Does appear to be discharging itself :-(

That rise voltage is a temporary residual effect of the higher charging voltage. All batteries get that, and will drop to their charged voltage fairly quickly.
My advice is: not to follow my advice.
