In a nutshell - the electronics unit is not a voltage meter ... and the voltage shown on the screen should only be noted as a general voltage of the battery itself ...

I’m known to overkill stuff, was going to go 10 gage. But I rummaged around in the shop and found a roll with a 100 feet or so of 12. It’s paid for, think it’s worth a go. Heck, as much as I have, may pull in 2 runs of it and divide the load up. For the record, what I was using was in the boat from previous owner. It’s 14 at best, may be smaller.
