   I've read contradicting stuff on this.  Gonna put the solar charger on   
   it and wait to take it out until next week sometime.  They say you can   
   tell by the sound for one, they say it growls more, and idle even goes   
   up.  I have to check in the setting as there might be a page that tells   
   you the % it is at.  Would be nice if you could turn that on the screen,   
   go for a drive and watch it go down.   
      
   I'll let y'all know how it goes.
