Low Voltage cut off

[bat]

I am trying to find a device I can put inline to my power for my fringe. My fringe does not have a LVCO switch and looking for some advice. I have found the Spod device but that is all I can find anything else that will work just on 1 circuit.

What fridge do you have? If it has a danfoss compressor its very easy to add a set able low voltage cut out. If not I was looking for a cut out circuit a while ago and considered a DIY kit from oatley electronics. I have not tried it but it looks nice and doubles as a dual battery controller.

It is a V2000 Norcold I picked up and it has no electric control for temp or circuit.

I have a battery brain marine version, and it works well. The remote reconnect is convenient.

I've already used it (i.e. it kicked in to cut the battery) on a couple of occassions, once when I was testing battery longevity with the new fridge, and a couple of times when one of the kids left the map lights on.

Engel has one: http://www.engelaustralia.com.au/cgi-bin/products.cgi?any=low+voltage+cut+out

Here is one that we use on vehicle build outs when we need to control up to 30 amps. It is programmable for both cut-out and cut-in voltages: http://www.powerwerx.com/emergency-vehicle/newmar-LVD-12-30-low-voltage-disconnect.html

Good quality devises and very reasonable.

I use one of these for my whole camper...

I installed one of these to protect the battery in my truck from my camper loads... also gives me a solar input (once I get the panels:ylsmoke
I would think you could use it on a 12v cooler just as easy.

I got mine off Amazon...

I'll second the battery brain. It's cheap and has saved me at least a dozen times over the last 5 years. :ylsmoke:
