In this episode we are going to see the most economical and efficient devices to monitor the batteries of our boat (or van, or motorhome). Being able to know at all times its state of charge, how much battery is available, etc. In this way, extend the life and use of them. We are going to discover the cheapest battery monitors that have nothing to send to the most popular versions costing almost 10 times less.
In addition, we will see how easy it is to integrate in OpenPlotter, with our Raspberry Pi, all the information on the status of our batteries, solar chargers, and other Victron equipment, in a really economical way and having all the data available on our mobile, tablet or plotter, either while we are on the boat or even from home.
