No. Currently we have no plans top remove this feature although We are aware this is an issue and is something we are looking at.
The current digital control will flash Bat if voltage drops to 11.5 or less and shut down if it detects less than 11V.
The reason behind 11.5 and 11V is we are told that to continue to use a battery below 11V is likely to cause damage to the battery.
In some cases the voltage measured at the battery and at the controller will differ. This is due to a voltage drop along the cable. so
1) Are the connections from the controller to the pump as short as possible?
This is because the longer the wire the greater the volt drop. For instance you could measure 12.5V at the battery but only measure 11.5V at the controller when the pump is running. This is because of the losses in the wiring from the battery to the controller.
BUT if you connect the pump directly to the battery it will work fine. It is just that you may well damage the battery (shorten its working life) if you do this. If we didn't have this feature then may complain that we are damaging batteries.
2) The connections to the controller need to be good. We recommend you keep the connectors supplied already connected to the unit, which have been tested. If you change these you risk making a poor connection. This may mean a greater volt drop and result in the same problem as outlined about when the wires are too long.
