Battery Voltage

Quick question, I noticed neither refrigerator wasn't as cold as they should be. I also noticed that my battery voltage is at 11.79 vdc. Do you think the battery voltage could cause the fridges to be warm? I see 2 new house batteries in my near future....

    Yeah, if that's the voltage after charging, those batteries are done for.

    I agree. How old are they?

    That's what I thought and will replace them Monday. I just replaced my port engine battery the other day. I think the last time I bought batteries was believe it or not was 2012. I am going to have my guy look it up.

    14 years on any battery, let alone in a boat, is just crazy!! I think I got maybe 10 on my thruster which I thought was great.  I’m not willing to chance it on anything else.
