Ctek Battery Sense

[JNC]

I've not seen anything on here about this !, And I've just fitted one to my car, Only 74 grams two connectors to the battery, Bluetooth pair to your smart phone in five minutes  £45.00 allows you to monitor your battery and gives a graph of use and charge and will let you know if the charge rate has dropped.

Mentioned here. ;-)

I wouldn't use this because the relevant vehicles are left on their conditioning chargers all the time.

I think it shows promise ! And will report back after a suitable trial

I've had one on my previous Caterham's and I have now transferred it onto my new 620R.

I do also use a Ctek battery conditioner too.

It was interesting to see that when my 620R was delivered the Odyssey PC680 battery had only 70% charge in it.

The graph shows when you plugged in the charger ! . I see you didn't choose to show the voltage or temperature did you input the AH ?

I did have them turned on, but forgot to tenable them again on this new car and battery.

Also needed to check what the AH was of the Odesssey, as there are different types of the same battery.

All sorted now!

Thanks for the heads up.  Just bought one to fit on my Range Rover which has intermittent use and does suck the life out of the battery when not being used.  It's not intermittent enough to warrant permanent hook up to a Ctek charger, like the 7, so this should be useful.
