Just found your channel and appreciate it greatly, both content and production. About to start my project and a new channel for my sailboat; looks like a huge part of the work is already done for me -- except I'll be using 24v LFP, a 21 HP Westerbeke diesel and a pair of DIY electrified and air-powered old 6 HP outboard conversions with variable pitch props. Eventual goal is a boat pet that comes when I call and knows how to get to the next location when I ask it to and anchor effectively built of mostly recycled and repurposed parts. Looking forward to going through your github content. Many thanks. (Also appreciate your channel's name as a deeply philosophically meaningful outlook on life quite similar to my own. Cheers.

Sounds like an awesome project!! let me know if you see anything on my Github you are unsure of. I have a another project coming up when I get chance with some automated switches.

Slightly disappointed that you didn't use a hall effect current sensor instead of the shunt, but nevertheless, a much better than the average YT marine-electronics video.
@ApresSail Жыл бұрын
The Hall effect versions are more expensive than the Shunt version, and the 50mv loss is not a big deal really. For other viewers can you think of other pro's and cons of Hall vs shunt?

Thanks!Awesome project,I don't have NMEA2000 but Seatalk (first version), which canbus can I use? thanks for help and taking the time to share your projects.......
@ApresSail2 ай бұрын
No problem! if you have Seatalk 1, then you can connect it to your Raspberry Pi via an Opticoupler and be able to decode it. Take a look at my Tech Episode 2.

Nice video thanks a lot. Could you please post a picture of the battery with the shunt from the frontsite?
@ApresSail Жыл бұрын
I can't do it in the comments but I just updated the Github page at: github.com/Techstyleuk/SensESP_3_Battery_Monitor with 2 pics, I hope that helps. the shunts were smaller than expected, I didn't really look, I assumed the connection was going to be a standard battery terminal and it isn't. I am either going to mount these or buy something else. Vishay do one with bigger holes or there was one at Aliexpress that was mounted

Hi Jason, nice detailed video, as usual. Are you actually writing all the code yourself? If so, Kudos to you, that is a fair amount of work. Quick question: The buck converter you are using could that power a small 5V bus bar? I am trying to find a clean way to provide 5V for all my 5V components (RPi, likely a McArthur hat, small computer accessories). What is your solution on s/v Après? Cheers, a.
@ApresSail7 ай бұрын
the buck converter I use is 3A and I use one for the RPI, with several peripherals, but then attached I have a 12V powered USB hub with 4 ports for extra RPI connections and a 2.4A power USB that you could power the RPI with, if you wanted too (amzn.to/49baLGN). I have a second hub at the helm for Maiana and the touchscreen. I thought the MacArthur Hat took 12V supply and provided safe shutdown, similar to the circuit that I use. Couldn't you just use that?
@Coyotehello7 ай бұрын
@@ApresSail Excellent information thank you. Yes the MacArthur does what you mentioned above and 12V to 5V.
@Coyotehello7 ай бұрын
@@ApresSail Yes, but apart from the MacArthur hat providing 5V to the Pi5 , how can I use that 5V for other peripherals?
@ApresSail7 ай бұрын
@@Coyotehello like I said, I would either use a 12v USB Hub - then every peripheral is locally powered - the one I use is up to 24watts. I have GPS dongle, RTL-SDR, RS422-USB (NMEA0183), wireless KBRD/mouse dongle and 10" Navstation touchscreen on one, Maiana and the 15.6" Screen touchscreen on another. with regard to the code, I wrote it with help from many examples and the literature for SensESP from Matti Airas - github.com/hatlabs/

bonjour est il possible de monitore 4 batteries avec votre système en rajoutant un module can bus car j'ais un parc batterie de 3 x 4 batteries a regarde sur home assistant vidéo simple efficace merci beaucoup 👍👍 france bretagne Kenavo Good morning is it possible to monitor 4 batteries with your system by adding a can bus module because I have a battery bank of 3 x 4 batteries looked on home assistant simple effective video thank you very much 👍👍 France Brittany Kenavo

The INA219 voltage/current sensor board has 4 possible addresses which means 4 can be used on one I2C bus, so you could monitor up to 4 quite easily. Over 4 you could use a multiplexer (amzn.to/49cVGoY) or there is a INA3221 which will do 3 batteries each and 4 addresses (12 batteries total) - amzn.to/3MoASRv. You would have to make some code adjustments but just using 4x INA219 would be mostly copy and paste from my code
