<div class="v1gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">I don't want to add a device that provides a separate (different) state of charge than what is reported by the BMS itself. That is just going to lead to confusion and complaints from the homeowner. I was hoping the Sol-Ark could feed SOC and voltage information to a simple external display. I'm leaning toward the cheap tablet idea, but that isn't ideal because the Sol-Ark app doesn't automatically refresh, so it can't be used to display the current SOC without physical interaction. I suppose I could use a web browser with an auto-refresh feature. But this isn't really what I had in mind.</div>

</div>
<div dir="auto">Are there any off the shelf solutions to view battery SOC via a wired meter mounted remotely on a property? I have a client with a simple voltage based meter for lead acid batteries that they are accustomed to using as a quick and approximate gauge of SOC. They want something similar for their new Sol-Ark with EG4 LL batteries.
<div dir="auto"> </div>
<div dir="auto">They will have smartphone app visibility, but they want something they can see inside the house without picking up a phone or going out to the inverter. Ideally the SOC will come from the inverter or the battery itself, not an external source (to avoid discrepancies).<br />
