Try running it w/ VR7 turned all the way counter clockwise. This won't protect your SLA from going too low anymore but SLAs are cheap. See how long it runs now.

See how long it runs now. That's an idea. I'm interested in switching back to the Tekkeons if I can, any idea if running that fully counter-clockwise would damage them?

See how long it runs now. One more thought on this, would I be at risk of damaging the V2 by doing this and then running low?

Yeah, good call We're about to open her up tonight, I think we're going for actually calibrating it. I'll report back.

Won't you need to do VR7 and VR8?Oh right I had only looked at the diagram not actually read the instructions I could be wrong but I thought VR8 just sets the point where the low battery light starts to flash whereas VR7 controls the actual auto power-down circuit.
