NEW PRODUCT ![]() Now there is a different take. A Lithium battery that has a battery monitor built into the top of it. Not a bad idea! The monitor reads both voltage and battery percentage. As for the Lithium cell itself, well, If I know the team at Korr they will have done their homework on it and they don't put their logo on rubbish. They claim it's a "100Ah IEC-certified lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) deep cycle battery constructed from high-quality aluminium- encased prismatic cells. Ideal for weight-sensitive and/or high vibration applications'. I see they are taking pre-orders with stock due in Late April. Could be a good thing?? More information HERE

More info and technical specs HERE NEW PRODUCT ![]() If you are looking for a compact flush mount battery monitor then this product could be worth a look. New to the market late 2019 the Thunder battery monitor will suit all the normal battery types including Lithium. The head unit displays - battery capacity in Ah or mAh, battery capacity in %, time to empty based on current usage, time to full when charging, current draw out, current inwards, and wattage usage. You can program your battery capacity (from 0.1Ah to 590Ah), type and set the high and low voltage point of your battery. Comes with a 150 Amp shunt (They go on the negative side) and a 1.5 meter lead. I couldn't find an IP rating but looking at the unit I would say the face of the monitor would be splash proof...but not the back! Check out the Thunder power products website for details or your nearest stockist. https://www.thunderauto.com.au/ NEW PRODUCT What a fantastic Idea. A jump pack that is permanently connected to the battery so if you ever have a flat battery the Rescue Mate can automatically detect this, charge the battery and you are good to go. Then once the alternator has started turning the Rescue Mate will manage the charge back into the battery via a management system built into the unit. I would think that this would be an absolute must for anyone into offshore fishing, very remote overland vehicles, emergency generation and more. In fact Oz Charge do supply some emergency services in Australia in their mission critical applications.
Well done JAS for identifying this issue and issuing a recall. Recalls are a serious disruption to brand and business and the team at JAS will be working hard to rectify this. Good corporate governance in practice within this company.
