[C320-list] Battery Monitor Question...

[Jon Vez]

I can feel your pain...I'm in Boston and I've stored my boat in the water
this winter--can't get onto the dock...I had no idea this problem existed
until I started doing some research for my friend, but I will be making the
changes as soon as I can get to the boat as well....

Jon,
Thanks for the link to the info on the Link 20.  Mine has been giving me the
same trouble and I can't wait to reset the parameters... that's as soon as
the 6' snow drift melts away from the boarding ladder and I can climb back
aboard (fun in the New England winter).

My dock neighbor is planning on adding a battery monitor and originally
planned on going with the Link (which is what I have). However he came
across a product by Victron (bmv600). I did some research and found that
this a Dutch made product with a pretty good reputation but very limited
installations in the U.S. The biggest draw is that it is significantly
cheaper than the Link (it includes the plug and play cable). My question is
does anyone have any experience with this product?



Also, for those of you with Link monitors, take a look at this very
interesting thread from Stu Jackson on the C34 site-ah the things we do when
snowbound..
