    Turtle is correct of course... so just to be absolutely clear now we know the max load current is only 10 amps...

    If you are dropping more than .1 volts across the Adapter and Andersons at 10 amps you have issues.
    If your voltmeter goes to two decimal places I would want it to be much less than that IE less than .05 volts

    Trying not be confusing here but the difference is the way the voltmeter will round out if it only has 1 decimal place on the display
    12.66 actual will display as 12.7 and 12.64 actual will display as 12.6 so the drop is actually only 0.02 but displays as 0.1
    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.
