Balmar SG200 Battery Monitor

BalmarBatteryMonitor

October 1, 2020

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 Smartgauge with many advantages of a shunt-based Amp-Hour counting system. Further, they’ve designed a device architecture which facilitates multiple gauges, or multiple shunts 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.

Cobra Two-Way (GMRS) Radios

GMRS radios – often called civilian pattern – are ideal companions to marine VHF radios. Popular for many years, Cobra has introduced a new pair that impressed us and our boating companions. We have always used these products for communication between dinghy and “mother” ship or between buddy boaters who want to talk freely without using priority VHF channels. These are called “civilian” because their use requires no license and range is limited to about fifteen miles or so.
