sorry, I should have read more closely. I understood you were using it as a starting battery for an ICE.
My experience is EVERY modern normal running vehicle has 14.0 to 14.4 or so volts, fully charged, and engine running.
I have a small automotive shop, and we specialize in fuel injection and electrical issues, and battery voltage at idle is something we pretty much always check.
