Battery Meter
For you information - Checked with my Merc representative and was given the
following information regarding a 2003 90HP Merc outboard. With engine running the battery gauge should reflect a volt reading of 14.5 to 15 and since mine reads 14.8 I'm right on target. |

Like a million and the boat performs like a million. Now, if only the
weather would improve. Maine's east coast has been drenched and cold forever and it appears like this coming holiday weekend though dry will be cold as well. Praying for hot and dry summer weather. Thanks for your suggestions. "Eisboch" wrote in message ... "Ernie" wrote in message .. .

But remember, it's not a battery gauge when the engine is running - it's measuring alternator output. So the spec he gave you is for alternator output, not battery condition. Let's debate the full charge battery spec again!! (just joking). Happy boating! I had a great weekend with just a minor issue of an irritating leak in my aluminum boat. But the engine, alternator and battery worked extremely well. Cam |
