Lithium Battery Shunt
Hello,
Can anyone who is using Lithium Batteries recommend a shunt style battery monitor. I'm looking for one that monitors voltage and how much time left on the battery taking into. Bluetooth and or a gauge for the dashboard would be helpful. The gauge that came with my Allied batteries only shows voltage and percentage which is constantly changing as you drive. Once you park the cart and wait some time it will then show what percentage is left. I'm looking for one that's more accurate |

I use and recommend the Renogy meter.

Re: Lithium Battery Shunt
Adam P, did you try this meter with the Allied batteries? I put in 4 12.8v Allied back in 2019 and never feel like I have accurate information from the SOC meter that came with them.

Re: Lithium Battery Shunt
And will this Renogy work with 4 12v Allied Lithium connected in series?

Re: Lithium Battery Shunt
A shunt based SOC meter is independent of the batteries. It doesn’t care what type of battery it is connected to as long as it’s within its voltage and current specifications.

Re: Lithium Battery Shunt
Yes Bought it and so far it seems to be a big improvement. I haven’t had the cart for a month now it’s in the shop. I still not sure how many miles i will get . Before it went into,the shop I was keeping track of mileage versus charge.

Re: Lithium Battery Shunt
Not if they’re 12v as implied.

Re: Lithium Battery Shunt
Out of curiosity, if you switch to lithium and the battery gauge is no longer accurate on built in dash, can it be turned off?
