Victron SmartShunt 500A IP65 Water Resistant Battery Monitor

Victron SmartShunt 500A IP65 Water Resistant Battery Monitor

The SmartShunt IP65 is an all-in-one battery monitor, only without a display. Your phone acts as the display.  

The SmartShunt IP65 is water resistant and is available in a 500 A, 1000 A or 2000 A version.  It connects via Bluetooth to the VictronConnect app on your phone (or tablet) and you can conveniently read out all monitored battery parameters, like state of charge, time to go, historical information and much more.  Alternatively, the SmartShunt IP65 can be connected and be read by a GX device. Connection to the SmartShunt is made via a VE.Direct cable.

The SmartShunt is a good alternative for a BMV battery monitor, especially for systems where battery monitoring is needed but less wiring and clutter is wanted.  

The SmartShunt is equipped with Bluetooth, has a VE.Direct port and an auxiliary connection that can be used to monitor a second battery, for midpoint monitoring, or to connect a temperature sensor.
