Batbot – the battery monitor that keeps you informed

Batbot – the battery monitor that keeps you informed

A vehicle and leisure battery monitor that alerts you remotely on your phone when the battery is about to be discharged beyond use.

Batbot simply hooks up via two croc clips (provided) to the battery points under your vehicles bonet and can be secured in place with a cable tie.

Once installed the device then sends your battery’s data to the cloud where alerts are generated and then sent to your mobile device or email address. Unlike other products, Batbot uses the Sigfox or LoRaWAN radio networks to send this data, so no bluetooth connection is required.

You can choose which version of Batbot will work best for you, based on the coverage in your area. We’ll go into more detail on this a little later on…
