If I really want to monitor the battery, I would just plug in a voltmeter for the cigarette lighter - something similar to this => https://www.amazon.com/Battery-Charg...SNBKMCK79Q9ZCT Or just use the secret menu if I don't have a meter at hand. |
Each to their own mate. I bought it primarily to monitor my second battery which too is under the floor, but doesn't have a cigarette lighter or secret menu. It powers my car fridge and knowing the voltage of that battery is important to me. As for reliability and longevity, time will tell. In the meantime, the food the beer and more importantly me, are cool.
