    Lithium battery gauge

    Anyone know of a product to place on lithium batteries that would connect to my phone via Bluetooth to keep track of the current charge? I have an ionic cranking battery with an app but my tm batteries are amped outdoors without a built in app in the battery. Thanks!

    I used the shunt style sold by Amped. No Bluetooth, but I was able to place the gauge where it's easily seen as soon as I open the lid.

    I did the same, bought these on Amazon. The way my batteries are mounted, I can raise the bilge lid and check SOC very quickly but not all boats are set up this way.

    This is the one I used, works great just not waterproof. I installed it in a waterproof case. https://battlebornbatteries.com/prod...BoCuVYQAvD_BwE

    If you don't mind what waterproof case are you using?
    Thank you, Tony.
