Voltronic standby charger (11 Viewers)

I fitted one of these to keep my starter battery topped up instead of Connecting up my 3 way victron mains charger to the starter battery after being advised not to.
I’ve turned my mains charger on to see if the Voltronic is doing what it’s supposed to but after an hour there’s no change to the starter battery readings, checked with my tester,
Any advise please, I’ve checked all the connections and all seems to be working,
I’ve got a 10mm cable from the starter bat to the Voltronic via a small bus bar.

If your engine battery is full then it may not do anything.

Cheers. Good point.
The first reading which I took straightaway was11.94 now it’s down to 11.86 after an hour

I maybe should’ve took the starter battery reading before I turned on the mains charger and then took another reading when I unplugged the mains charger
