    Based on the 12v voltmeter I bought, the back print reads;

    "engine off" 11.9 to 12.7 volts

    "engine running" 12.8 to 14.4 volts

    Scanguage is pretty much accurate than those plug-in-to-cig-lighter Voltmeters.

    Keep in mind 13.8V is the ideal float charge for any 12VDC system.

    In Telco and military -48V sytems its just multiple of 4, hence 55.2V

    ^its not that important to monitor it in milliVolts level

    Whats important is one can deduce a dead cell of 2.1V from a total of 12.6V (6cells)

    in the olden days, we would replace a dead cell or two, in lieu of discarding the entire battery. ... money issues and all that...
    i wonder, is this still done today?

    in the olden days, tinutunaw yung aspalto at hahatakin yung dead cell, and replace the old plates inside with new ones.

    maganda daw gawin yan after warranty and working pa ang battery. like having a brand new batt all over again.

    i just traded in my old battery a couple of weeks ago.
    the signs of impending doom were becoming frequent-er.
