Battery Bank Balance

Nice update Chris, and good catch.
(Glad to see you're still about, thought you must have gone fishing or something... been awfully quiet of late!)

Yes thanks for the update.

It seems your setup is advantageous.
This next spring we should be in the market for  a new battery bank, if the final decision of battery lends itself to this approach I will likely duplicate the double meter setup, maybe with some extra ideas I had about this recently.

Don't be such a stranger 
Hope to see more posts from you.

   Good point on the water usage versus heat Chris.  Thanks.  Glad you caught it before it did serious damage.

Yes, almost back at the start I removed the series connections on the bank and moved them to the bus.  Those series connections at the bank caused some irregularities in charging voltage that seemed to go away with the series connection made at the bus.  I don't think that was a huge deal because it always evened out.

The only reason I can come up that may have caused the irregularities is that the series connection was shorter than the leads to the bus.  With the series connection at the bus, now all the cables carrying the heavy amps are all the same length.
