Accurate temperature data provided by the Victron Smart Battery Sense improves battery charging efficiency and prolongs battery life. By ensuring that the battery is charged under optimal conditions, it prevents overcharging or undercharging, thereby extending the overall lifespan of the battery. Additionally, the long-range Bluetooth capability allows for monitoring up to 10 meters away, making it ideal for out-of-the-way batteries like generator starting batteries or bow thruster batteries. Conventional batteries need to get their charge voltage adjusted based on temperature to prevent gassing and loss of electrolyte. Lithium batteries need to stop charging when the temperature gets to freezing.
