Raspberry pi 4 model b.
Raspberry pi rv battery monitor.
This is a build that will allow you to monitor your rv via your phone.
The voltage readings are sent to a raspberry pi where you can plot them set up alerts send them over the network or do anything else you want.
Which displays the current battery level.
Raspberry pi can also be used in places without electricity.
Your tiny dual display desktop computer and robot brains smart home hub media centre networked ai core factory controller and much more.
You can make it as simple as just adding the raspberry pi camera with motion alerts or more complex by adding motion sensors door sensor etc.
If the values data image etc.
Think of a battery monitor as a fuel gauge for your battery bank.
With the use of the camera port and the introduction of the raspberry pi zero w it is easy to set up a wifi network of cameras and be able to view them as well as have them save video when motion occurs or take photos at regular intervals.
Video on how to put the script on the raspberry pi.
If you want to know the charge level of your battery bank and how much current is entering or leaving your batteries you need a battery monitor.
Sensors will be required.
Victron battery monitor kits.
Hackster io member gorkem ziya yanik has created a raspberry pi battery monitor project which she has kindly published to the hackster io website for your viewing pleasure.
For example water pumping stations or in areas such as animal monitoring and so raspberry pi work with battery.
The way to do this is to monitor the battery voltage.
I d probably use an ads1115 which gives you either 4 ground referenced inputs or two differential inputs.
The link to the script http atmega328 ru simple script for mo.
A car starter battery or a marine deep cycle battery.
It must be monitored continuously it is important to keep the system alive.
The raspberry pi doesn t include any analog to digital adc inputs so you can t directly connect a pi in any way including with voltage dividers and have the system read battery voltage.
