I'll be letting the alternator cut back in at 12.2 volts, which equates to 50% charge.
That's if the regen charging isn't sufficient to keep the battery topped up.
So the battery will never discharge less than 50%, hopefully allowing the battery to live a bit longer than if it was fully discharged then recharged.
