So I ran across this the other day (and added ot the first blog)

As I said in the first blog, not sure what function the App gives, but it is bluetooth, so presumably you'll need to be within range.

It seems someone has done a review and it certainly appears promising under certain circumstances.

They are priced at the above store for NZ$43.95 inc tax, which isn't too bad.

Maybe I might have to grab one for experimental purposes.

I have a friend who has solar power, and we were discussing some of the issues he is having at the moment with one battery that may be dead.

The history feature in this, just might give him some valuable information.

Thanks guys.

Glad you liked it ... now to start fitting it while the battery is fully charged again.

Excellent insight into your problem solving strategy.

Kind regards

Defining the problem is the key.

Once you know what is draining the battery and by how much, then you can assess using an automatic shutoff circuit for all but the essential devices.

Hi Mark,

Very nice flow chart of the analysis and decision making process leading up to designing a fix for a problem.
