I am looking for some advice on how to add a highwater alarm and battery monitor for my battery bank with a solar panel.
For the high water alarm I have a float switch that I can use. Is there a 12 volt step down to a voltage I can wire right to a pin. Then when there is voltage at the pen I can set an audible and text action?
The battery monitor I have thought about a few different ideas but am open to suggestion. At this point I am thinking of measuring overall voltage and flow in and out by using a shunt on the negative side. Maybe with some sort of arduino set up. Any ideas?
