Battery Monitor

Do Jayco Class C units have a house battery monitoring device/system (installed by manufacturer)?
  • I would think that it does. Our Jayco trailer has one. How accurate they are is somewhat questionable. I guess I can say they give relative readings.
  • I do have a 12 VDC Cigarette Lighter Socket in my 5er. Are there any GOOD and inexpensive plug in voltmeters?
  • Hi,

    In general, the ones that are provided are pretty much a joke. Victron makes some excellent devices.

    Some of the newer ones use blue tooth which is a nice feature.
  • As pianotuna has said - the OEM battery monitor is worthless. If it were me I would wait/learn B4 I would invest in expensive upgrade.
