Has anybody have any knowledge or currently have an installation of Enerdrive Lite Battery Monitor on a House bank of more than 2 batteries?
I have followed the instructions that came with it , but still not clear on which Battery the Positive lead should be connected to.
Basically batteries are set up numbered 1 through to 4 , with #4 being the last battery , so I have installed the shunt coming from #4 battery Negative terminal and all negative loads coming off the shunt.
So Do I connect the positive cable onto the Pos terminal on the same battery #4 or should it go onto #1 pos terminal.
If the positives of all the batteries are connected to gather the it won't matter which actual battery you connect the positive for the Enerdrive Lite Battery Monitor to. I'm assuming you have the 4 batteries connected in parallel or are they 6V batteries in a Parallel/series configuration.
Cheers
Thanks for the reply Crusoe,
4 x 12 volt in parallel . I will set it up like this
Have a look at these 2 articles DAMA with regard to installation and programming of Battery Monitors. Well worth the read.
