I don't drive my truck a lot lately and as a result battery has gone dead a few times. I got this so I can check the battery remotely and it will also send a notification if your battery falls to a certain level that you can adjust in the app settings. It works perfectly from behind the wheel, I'm able to park almost directly under my bedroom window it should work fine from there too if I open the window. Bluetooth is a short range technology, most folks are saying under fifteen feet which is fine with me. There are a few tenders available that have wifi capabilities but this gadget is more versatile because you can use it with any charger or a solar panel etc. and keep an eye on your battery level remotely. The unit also has other functions that I have no plans to use at the moment but adds to the value of the item for sure. I had zero problems finding the app with the convenient scan box on the box the item comes in and the app had zero issues finding the gadget and pairing with it (make sure bluetooth is on before you install the software, the gadget comes on in pair mode like many if not most bluetooth gadgets these days. So far so good, it would appear they've improved things or I just lucked out and don't have any interference at my house. Does what I wanted, lets me monitor car battery voltage without getting into the engine compartment. You will automatically get a notification every day from the unit but it will only show current battery voltage level which is what I wanted it for.update roughly three weeks later: Item still working great but this morning when I started up the app it could not see the battery in my car only a couple feet away. I have noticed that sometimes with products using bluetooth an app update might mean you have to restart the phone/tablet or rarely even reinstall the bluetooth gadget before things start working correctly again. I don't know if there was an app update, it was in the 20's outside this morning but that shouldn't have been cold enough to create a problem. Turned the phone off and restarted, all working again so be aware that if you have issues you possibly need to turn off your phone and restart to get it working again (not a biggie). I put my new nocco genius 10 charger on the battery (probably stay away from where you have the gadget connectors on the battery just in case) and used the app to monitor the charging works perfectly shows voltage coming off the battery and percentage charged to get any more info you have to start the car up.

Update 1/27/25 to my original review.I received a replacement unit that now works for downloading the data locally. As far as calculating the fuel usage by MPG, when in Imperial units, Not metric units, I simply put the cost of a gallon of gas and MPG for the other field. I ignored the liters note in the little message area. I also confirmed that the unit had the latest firmware installed.So overall, I am very impressed with the performance and by the way, customer support was excellent also.--- First Review:Some features in this I liked, and some I did not like. First off, it was easy to hookup and get the Bluetooth working. However I could not get the data to download no matter what I did. I wanted to be able to download the data to compare historical data from time to time on a battery setup. And so maybe I had a unit that simply did not work for downloading. One feature that I did like was the fact that I could fine tune the battery discharge curve based on custom type. But for the most part it had both LiFePo4 and Lead Acid batteries you could select from the menu. Another feature that didn't make sense is they have it so you can put it into American settings, but not everything. For example, they have the option to put in data for 100 kilometers of driving, though there wasn't a way to enter miles. That was strange that they didn't have that conversion built in.The Bluetooth portion works well, and is really designed for close use only. I wanted to be able to monitor the voltage while driving at times, and that was the cool part. I really didn't expect it to go long distances, because Bluetooth is not designed for long distances. I'm not sure how the Bluetooth part works for finding your car, I didn't really give that a chance to see how it works. So this Ancel unit definitely has its pros and cons, and the pros outweigh the cons, but in the end I returned it because I could not get the data exported. Like I mentioned, maybe I had a bad unit.

This is an excellent tool for monitoring your battery performance! I use this for monitoring a LIFEp04 battery which is being utilized in a UPS backup extra storage capacity scenario.Per my pictures, there are multiple available screens with different parameters which can be viewed. Some of the battery conditions which may be monitored via Bluetooth connection are SoC (State of Charge), Temperature, and Voltage.I like the fact that you can even program in your own custom SoC parameters in 10% increments as shown in attached picture to customize to your particular battery.This unit can also be utilized to monitor SoC, Voltage and Temperature during charging which is VERY useful. Great product at an attractive price!Please be sure to attach to your battery to obtain accurate temperature readings if that is an important feature for you.I would highly recommend this product and am hoping for years of use. Time will tell if it holds up, but so far, so good!

This little device is great for me, making sure dashcam's parking mode isn't unduly draining the battery.A bit dissapointed because I was hoping to monitor the battery with my phone from inside the house, and measured the parking spot at 9meters away, but there is no connection.The device advertises a theoretical maximum range of 10 meters, but in reality, once its mounted in your engine compartment, things like "the car" and "the engine" and don't forget "the battery" will lessen the maximum range.No problem at all connecting to it while sitting in the car, and the battery voltage chart is stored on the device itself, and will sync to your phone when it connects, so it's still pretty good and works for what I want.

Battery works well as do all other products from ANCEL.1. Easy to install2. Tells you all about battery, charging system and starting system.3. Easy to use.NOW NOTE THE FOLLOWING AS ITS IMPORTANT!!!1. This unit must be stuck to batter with double sided tape.2. Battery SOC (state of charge) will NOT be accurate as soon as you install it. It needs about a day to learn and analyze the battery and charging system.This means actually using the battery in vehicle.After about a day.... it will be near accurate... but no device can tell you what the actual state of battery is chemically.3. It is very accurate interms of voltage, charging, dioide testing, starting test...Lastly... any negative reviews about this device not working accurately... did not allow it to learn the battery.

Parfait !Installation et utilisation fort simples, connexion bluetooth très facile.Cet appareil m'a permis de surveiller la fin de vie de ma batterie pour la changer avant la panne !

Ho installato questo Battery Monitor dopo che il sistema di ricarica della batteria dell'auto ha smesso definitivamente di funzionare. Mi ero accorto che qualcosa non stava funzionando a dovere ma non ho dato il giusto peso fino a quando il messaggio di "anomalia sistema ricarica batteria" e' comparso a schermo. Sostituito alternatore e installata una nuova batteria. A questo punto mi sono voluto dotare di questo monitor. L'installazione e' semplicissima: basta collegare i due poli della minuscola scatoletta ai poli della batteria e fissare saldamente il Battery Monitor alla batteria tramite il biadesivo fornito.L'App, appena scaricata, riconosce l'appareccio e lo configura. Importante e' concerere all'App tutti gli accessi che richiede.In App si possono vedere i parametri di salute della batteria quali: tensione, stato di carica, temperatura ed effettuare i test sia di accensione del motore che di carica quando il motore e' acceso.Simpatica la funzione che fissa la localizzazione del veicolo al suo spegnimento grazie alla funzione GPS. Utile pre ritrovare la macchina in parcheggi affollati.Il segnale bluetooth e' piuttosto potente. Infatti riesco a collegarmi al Battery Monitor anche se sono seduto in salotto e la macchina e' parcheggiata subito sotto in garage. In termini di distanza saranno 5 metri ma c'e' un pavimento in mezzo e la carrozzeria della macchina ma, nonostante questi ostacoli, il segnale arriva forte e chiaro.In definitiva, apparecchio utile per non restare in panne a causa della batteria. O forse ci si puo' comunque ritrovare con il problema in caso di un lungo viaggio ma almeno si viene avvisati in anticipo di una eventuale anomalia e ci si puo' dirigere al primo elettrauto.
