For a "12V"lead-acid battery, nominal full charge is 13.8V (2.3V per
cell)

If your alternator is involved that little solar charger will make no
difference at all. The smallest car alternator is going to be several
hundred watts.
Alternators typically charge batteries at around 14.5 volts, so when
the alternator is running the solar charger will cut off.

I guess you did not factor in my alternator.

I'm sorry it was of no help but it was true. At that charge rate you
would be lucky to stay ahead of self discharge.

Your answer was of no help.
And it was flippant as well.

I think you know its the year. More accurately, never.

Do you mean 20.55 volts?
Wouldn't that be a little overcharged?
