Thanks Paul That makes sense replacing the 12v battery as this appears to have gotten worse over time. With old lead batteries (this has 5 years use mid old) the DC DC converter tries to float charge the battery up to 14v but it won't go above 13v so it just keeps pumping current in. I'll check if the battery is hot, I think it should after sucking up 7Kwh in 24 hours. My Honda Insight went goofy, blinky dash lights, sputtering engine and found out it was the old 12v battery that I thought would never go bad because it doesn't start anything or supply heavy loads. I'll let you know if that's what it was. Thanks Lee for your help and on the goofy horn. Hope the Chevy Bolt doesn't have similar problems. For some reason I couldn't charge from the CCS fast charger, tried five chargers and all said both my credit cards were bad so I went in the store and bought a cookie on one and a coke on the other (health food). Just testing since fast chargers are 28c per kWh so I just charge at home where the energy is free from the sun. Have a renewable energy day Mark
