<p>This is probably a dumb question, but is the NiCad battery UL
listed? Most batteries are not.<br>

I don't know of any listed battery monitors. Not sure what spec
they would be tested to ?<br>
<br>
However...<br>
In Canada, I have heard of systems being individually blessed by
inspectors or whoever that<br>
include products that don't have listings but everything in the
system had to have a listing.<br>
<br>
I know that this was done for our wind Clipper in Canada not long
ago.<br>
<br>
Email me directly and I can try to find the particulars of that
situation if it might help here.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
boB<br>

Just to clarify, MidNite has two (2) battery monitors.... Sort
of...<br>
<br>
The MNBCM that Tom referred to is a shunt-less voltage monitor
that lets you know when<br>
the battery has not received an Absorb charge cycle for 1 week
and 2 weeks. It also has<br>
somewhat of a voltage meter. It is purely based on battery
voltage and looks for the rise<br>
in voltage for an accumulated of around 2 hours or so... It has
a semi-circle of LEDs on it.<br>
<br>
Then the Whizbang Junior is a 500A @ 50 mV shunt tack-on circuit
board that connects to<br>
the MidNite Classic or Kid charge controllers that calculates
State Of Charge based on<br>
Amp-Hours in and out of the bank.<br>
<br>
