Battery Monitoring System

I thought having some additional information on the battery status seemed like a good idea.
So I installed a battery monitor. It works well, and was fairly easy to install.
Would I do it again - yes.

Nice! Looking to do the same but in using something NMEA compatible or even better signalk :) Actually any advise from anyone on sensors compatible NMEA we should use?

Nice installation, good choice.
