!2v is continuously charged from the pack via the DC to DC, this is rated to a pack voltage of well over 80v . Its really worth turning off the pack (lead or Li ) and checking the 12v battery after about 10 mins. If its showing under 12v replace it. We are seeing a lot of the 12v battery dying at two to three years old. You dont see it normally as the DC to DC just tops it up., but that will flatten a pack in about two weeks.
