Leisure Battery Monitoring

Monitor and optimise your camper van electrical system with high-quality leisure battery monitoring solutions from Wired Campers, designed to give you accurate, real-time insight into your power usage. These systems are essential for camper van conversions, motorhomes and off-grid setups, helping you manage energy efficiently and avoid unexpected power loss.

At the heart of this collection are advanced monitoring devices such as Victron Energy SmartShunt battery monitors, which act as a “fuel gauge” for your leisure battery. These devices measure current flow in and out of your battery, providing detailed information including state of charge, voltage, power consumption and remaining capacity.

Unlike traditional battery monitors with fixed displays, SmartShunt systems use built-in Bluetooth connectivity to send data directly to your smartphone via the VictronConnect app. This allows you to monitor your system in real time, track historical performance and adjust settings without the need for additional screens or complex wiring.

Designed for both simplicity and precision, these monitoring systems are ideal for all types of camper van builds. From basic setups to fully off-grid systems with solar, inverters and lithium batteries, accurate battery monitoring helps you understand exactly how much power you have available and how it’s being used. This is especially important for off-grid travel, where efficient energy management is key to staying powered.

Many models also include additional features such as second battery monitoring, temperature sensing and integration with larger Victron systems via VE.Direct or GX devices. This makes them a scalable solution that can grow with your camper van electrical system as you upgrade or expand.

By installing a leisure battery monitor, you can prevent over-discharge, improve battery lifespan and gain full visibility over your camper van electrics. Whether you’re running lighting, fridges, heaters or inverters, having accurate data ensures you can manage your power confidently and efficiently.
