Any idea what would cause the battery to kick on low voltage with nothing connected to battery even disconnecting convertor?

house battery reading 12.4 same as car battery. the low voltage on wire going in reads 13.0 same as going out but within 30 secs or so out reads 10.5 then disconnects the battery.

It looks like the LVD is bad. If I by pass it every thing works. However, I don't really run without it. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement for a 50amp LVD???

The blue sea works, only issue the switch doesn't have a shut off for storage.
