Jan 25, 2012

Updated Aug 17, 2012

The Phillips Battery Status Indicator can monitor the state of power for any battery, particularly lift gate batteries, and alerts operators during pre-trip inspections that battery power may be low. The LED light flashes green if battery voltage is more than 12.4 volts, or 75 percent power, and blinks red when the voltage falls below 12.39 volts.
