Default RXV voltage meter question

I just installed a voltage meter on my 2012 rxv running straight from the battery pack. Hard wired mounted under the seat so it's on 24/7.
11 hours after taking it off charge I'm getting 51.7 volts.
Isn't that a little high? All of the state of charge graphs I've seen on here show 50.9 being 100%
I realize that is a small difference just wondering if it means anything?
Thanks in advance

Normal in my experience.

Generally new batteries seem to rest at higher voltage than they do when they age. Different battery brands may have slightly different acid concentrations. Variations in the accuracy of the meters are likely. Several explanations for this.

In my case, I have observed a slightly higher resting voltage when the battery water is low. Low meaning time to add water but not low enough to expose the plates. This is an unscientific observation. I mention it FWIW.
