If looking at chart only, make sure there are not loads on the system and the battery has had a chance to equalize (rested).

I try to not let my batteries get below 12.4 volts (75%), and only occasionly down to 12.2 (50%).  I think there are a lot of people who will run them down to where the lights get dim--not good for the batteries.  11.6 volts is essentially a dead battery.
