The op needs to make clear that the meter was set to the wrong range (whilst using the 20A current shunt) in post #1 which has the effect of moving the decimal point two places to the left i.e 130ma becomes 1.3ma.

That kind of 24/7 current will quickly lead to a low charge and deterioration of the Battery over time.

The correct range is 20A I think

Now you know the current is less than 200mA you could use the 200mA range for better resolution, but you must also move the red lead to the mA socket as inferred by @Mooly above.
