Very true but, ,, To use that chart properly requires that one disconnect the battery and let it rest for 30 minutes to settle at it's resting voltage..... Most people will not do this. It takes too long, especially when trying to chase down a problem, which usually means several readings.
Using a shunt type monitor avoids this downfall
In this case, a cheap shunt is probably better than an expensive screwdriver.2021 398M Full Body Paint 8k axles. LRH tires. Disc brakes.

I would rather have an expensive screw driver to open my beer than a cheap shunt. Especially if I was at the beach.
