This is the monitoring system that the EV world has been waiting for! The PakTrakr 600EV includes the display and 1 remote unit. Each remote unit can monitor up to 6 12V, 8V, or 6V AGM, Gel, or Flooded lead-acid batteries. Up to four additional remotes (for a total of 5) can be purchased below to monitor up to 30 batteries.
The PakTrakr not only provides a read-out of the real-time voltages, but also gives an analysis of the battery system. With the addition of a current sensor (also available below), pack current can also be monitored. All data can be collected through a RS-232 interface purchased separately below.
We have been very pleased with the PakTrakr system. The intallation is straight-forward, and the results have been great.

| PakTrakr 800EV Monitoring System |
|
The 800EV system has the same features as the 600EV monitoring system, however, it is designed to work with the 8-battery remotes. The 8-battery remotes differ from the 6-battery remotes in that they have two extra channels, and are only designed to work with 6 or 8 volt batteries.

| PakTrakr ES1/ES1R RS-232 Interface |
 |
There is nothing quite as intriguing (besides driving an EV!) as collecting battery data during a drive and plotting it on a computer.
This PakTrakr RS-232 connector makes that possible. The RS-232 connection is optically isolated from the high-voltage ground to avoid ground loops if the laptop or computer was plugged into the vehicle 12V system.
The RS-232 interface plugs directly into the back of the PakTrakr display. If a current sensor is used in the system, the current sensor plugs into a connector on the rear of the RS-232 interface shell.

| PakTrakr 600A Current Sensor Kit |
|
An easy to install Hall-effect current sensor adds additional functionality to your PakTrak 600EV or 800HE systems. Unlike a shunt resistor system, the PakTrakr current sensor is completely isolated from the pack, wastes no energy, and may be installed anywere along the pack.
The kit includes everything shown in the picture - the 600A sensor, a copper busbar, 5/16" bolts, washers, lockwashers, and nuts, and a 10ft cable. High quality 3M velcro is included on the base of the board. A 5/16" hole is fabricated into the board if mechanical mounting is preferred.

State of Charge (SOC) meter |
|
This State of Charge meter (battery indicator) can give you the state of discharge of your battery or battery pack. Its resistance varies from 5-10 kohms.
Installation is easy! Drill a 2 1/16" diameter hole in the dash or mounting panel and wire according to the schematic included below. Make sure you have adequate clearance behind the hole (about 2 inches).

| 2.5" Copper Busbar |
 |
A plain copper busbar, 2.5" long, 0.5" wide, and 0.25" high. It works well with the stock current sensors provided by PakTrakr. The holes are 5/16" in diameter.

150A AC Current Meter |
|
This AC current meter is great for measuring charge current, or anything else on the AC mains. Installation is very easy, and the sensor and display can be located away from each other allowing for the sensor to be tucked away and the meter in a visible location.
The display will operate on 8-15V AC or DC. The following diagram shows the wiring connections (input voltage is not polarity sensitive - can be connected either way. Click on the image for a larger view. The picture shows the rear cover removed - the unit ships with the cover intact).
