Drake,
I'd start by having her disconnect the temp sensor. If it has
failed, it can cause false voltage compensation.
However, if the MX60 is reading higher than actual, as your post
suggests, I would more expect it to regulate sooner, thus leading to
less water consumption, not more.

Hello Wrenches,
I just got off the phone with an off grid system owner who has a
voltage
discrepancy showing between the reading on her MX-60 and both her
Mate
and Trimetric meter. The MX-60 shows 28.8 V and the Trimetric and
the Mate both show around 25 volts. The batteries are using a
tremendous amount of water.
Has anyone seen this scenario before? Do you think the MX-60 is
bad?
Thanks,
Drake Chamberlin
