Recently launched a new Battery Monitor kit from Magnum Energy

Good news is that a rrp of $150 comes complete with wiring kit and shunt and sense wires.:D

Bad News it needs Magnums proprietory Remote Control Display Module from there inverters to work, like the Outback needing the mate! :cry:
Which shouldnt be a problem for Magnum owners though !
