She is doing very well, but my daughter took the kids out of the public school system and has been home schooling them for the last 8 years.

So much corruption, and "group think" going on. They literally were brain washing those kids. They actually made the kids choose their sex in class, and the list was far greater than 2. And they did it in secret.

The young lady is well adjusted, and loves the structure. She is actually learning far more and is well rounded. She is thoughtful, and has been taught critical thinking skills.

She has flexible time and has learned time management skills as a result. She and her brother are 4-5 grade levels above the public school levels. She's been taking college level courses now for 3 years.
Yes, public schools are ruining our kids.

Ok, I have to eat crow here
As I always said - I will admit if I am wrong
I checked with my (Fluke) and ......
During the test - I had 14.29 volts on my Fluke and the (Plug In = 14.0) so specific to the plug in its actually .29 volts off.
The funny thing is - the wife recently bought a (Plug in) for her Jeep (USB) style with the meter and what did I get on that meter - 14.29 volts🤷‍♂️

Can I at least have some Dipping Sauce? :crackup:

I have not tested yet, but I used a similar digital volt plug in unit for convenience. What I find a bit interesting is that it reads identical voltages on my 2005 Ranger, but reads 0.2v lower on the 2020 Ranger. I used my 2005 Ranger to validate the plug in unit was accurate when I found the discrepancy with the 2020 Ranger the first time around.

I haven't checked the voltages in my 2020 yet with my meters in both locations, but I may end up eating a serving of crow myself.

I'll trust a Fluke any day over a cheap Chinese plug in. Having said that, I just checked my Fluke vs. my 12V accessory plug-in, and the plug-in reads about 0.05V lower.

I didn't know that the public schools had changed this much since I graduated from Sam Rayburn I.S.D in 2002. I give your daughter credit for choosing to home school her kids.
