it puts out so many millivolts depending on how many amps are moving through it, so with a volt meter you can monitor what your load is.

what does the shunt do in this case?

Yeah, up to 10 amp.

I think Forrest has them on his site with the site monitors.

Parallel. Site Monitor! Now where can I get a shunt?

4 batts in series or parallel?
Shunt + sitemonitor would be a better way to go and you don’t have to write code.

Hey all,
I am getting away from using APC at a couple of our sites and right now I have installed a Tripp-Lite APS750 connected to 4 Deep cycle marine batteries for a total of 404 aH system. I'd like to be able to monitor the discharge rate of the batteries when power is out remotely. What have you guys been doing to that effect?

I'm thinking a Pi and a shunt and some quick scripting classes on Python to put it all together...
