Interesting project. I was thinking of doing something similiar, you just made my point of view alot bigger. I was thinking of using voltage monitors through ESP to monitor just the voltage, but shunt project is so much deeper that i have to go with yours.
I had the OpenPlotter and Moitissier HAT in my closet for 2 years now and this year im finally installing it on the boat. Have you made your N2K integration to this board maybe? Since im thinking of having this box in the engine room id maybe power it through N2k directly (step-down in the middle of course). Since i have 2 battery banks (1 engine bank, 1 service) and i have Matty's N2K ESP box connected to OpenPlotter its the same for me going through N2k.
