Smart Battery Monitoring: Uses the VictronConnect app via Bluetooth to monitor the built-in Victron AGM battery status and charge level

Being the size of a suitcase and weighing only 22,5kg with a full fuel tank gives the chance to save space and be mobile while keeping most of AUTOTERM’s features.
KEEP OUTDOORS
Designed to endure light rain and snow (IP-51), it can be safely placed outside a vehicle or tent, as long as water isn't blown into the air intake by the wind.
