Can I use the KickAss Battery Monitor with different types of 12V batteries?
Yes, the KickAss 500A Battery Monitoring Shunt is compatible with all 12V battery types and supports battery capacities from 0.1Ah up to 999.9Ah. It accurately tracks state of charge, voltage, and current for deep cycle, AGM, and other 12V batteries.
This flexibility means you can integrate it with your existing battery setup or upgrade your system without compatibility concerns. The monitor’s calibration feature lets you tailor it precisely to your battery bank’s capacity for optimal accuracy.
This flexibility means you can integrate it with your existing battery setup or upgrade your system without compatibility concerns. The monitor’s calibration feature lets you tailor it precisely to your battery bank’s capacity for optimal accuracy.
How do I install the KickAss 500A Battery Monitoring Shunt and display?
Installation involves bolting the 500A shunt directly to the negative battery terminal or mounting it with the included holder and connecting via a short cable. The display connects to the shunt using supplied cables and features a remote display option with a backlit LCD screen for easy viewing.
The manual provides clear step-by-step instructions, including wiring the B+ wire with a 3A fuse for protection. This plug-and-play design ensures a straightforward setup, even in rugged outdoor conditions, enhancing your camping experience with real-time battery data.

How do I calibrate the KickAss Battery Monitor to ensure accurate readings?
Calibration is done by fully charging your battery bank to 100% state of charge (SOC) and then pressing and holding the UP arrow on the display for 3 seconds. This manual calibration aligns the monitor’s SOC reading with your battery’s actual charge level.
Calibration should be performed when the charger is in float stage to ensure accuracy. This simple process guarantees your monitor provides precise battery status, helping you manage power consumption and avoid unexpected battery depletion during your adventures.

What safety features does the KickAss 500A Battery Monitoring Shunt include?
The KickAss Battery Monitor features a low battery and low SOC audible alarm, which can be muted if desired, alerting you before your battery runs too low. It also requires installation with suitable gauge wiring and a 3A fuse on the B+ wire to protect the system from electrical faults.
These safety measures ensure your battery system remains protected while giving you peace of mind. The remote display should be kept away from excessive moisture, dust, and direct sunlight to maintain longevity and reliability in harsh outdoor environments.

What kind of information can I see on the KickAss Battery Monitor display?
The remote display shows battery state of charge (SOC %) with an energy ring, instantaneous current flow (positive for charging, negative for discharging), battery voltage, ambient temperature, and remaining time to full or empty.
This comprehensive data lets you monitor your battery system’s health and performance at a glance. The backlit LCD screen ensures visibility day or night, making it easy to manage your power use while camping or off-grid, optimising battery life and efficiency.

Can I extend the distance between the shunt and the display unit?
Yes, the KickAss Battery Monitor supports an optional 5-metre extension cable (SKU: KARDUEXT5M) for remotely mounting the display. This allows flexible installation options to suit your vehicle or campsite layout.
Using the recommended extension cable ensures signal integrity and convenience, so you can place the display in the most accessible location without compromising accuracy or ease of use.
Using the recommended extension cable ensures signal integrity and convenience, so you can place the display in the most accessible location without compromising accuracy or ease of use.
How does the KickAss Battery Monitor handle multiple batteries connected in parallel?
When using batteries in parallel, the shunt must be wired correctly with all system negative connections going to the P- side of the shunt, not directly to the battery terminal. This setup prevents false readings and ensures accurate monitoring of the entire battery bank.
The manual provides wiring diagrams and recommends using suitable fuses or circuit breakers for all loads, maintaining system safety and reliability. This design consideration makes the KickAss monitor ideal for complex off-grid power configurations.
