Balmar has combined recent technology advances to introduce a next generation battery monitor. The SG200 is quite simply the most accurate battery monitor available today. Balmar has combined the best features of its 1st generation SmartgaugeTM with many advantages of a shunt-based amp-hour counting system. Further, we’ve designed a device architecture which facilitates multiple Displays or multiple SmartShunts to be added to the network-allowing the boater to monitor multiple energy storage banks simultaneously from multiple locations.
In addition, the SG200 Color Display is easy to read, configurable and fits any standard 2 1/16″ gauge socket. Now you can determine your battery(s) condition from anywhere on the vessel or vehicle with multiple Displays, or simply add the optional Bluetooth® Smartphone App to keep information in your pocket!
Data Displayed
| State of Charge (SoC%) | State of Health (SoH%) | Charge/Discharge Amps | Time Remaining |
| Accurate display of your battery’s State of Charge after just two discharge cycles | Proprietary self-calibrating algorithm determines how your battery has aged from its original capacity. | Displays the real-time current flowing in or out of your house battery. | Time remaining until empty when discharging, or time remaining until full when charging. |
