It records voltage, current, energy and time remaining, and much more. Keeps records and charts of historical data and alarms - MONITOR VIA BLUETOOTH: The SmartShunt is a good alternative for a BMV battery monitor, especially for systems where battery monitoring is needed but less wiring and clutter is wanted. - MULTIPLE CONNECTION OPTIONS: The SmartShunt is equipped with Bluetooth, a VE.Direct port and a connection that can be used for: monitoring a second battery, midpoint monitoring or a temperature sensor. - 10-15 METERS BLUETOOTH RANGE: The shunt and cables can limit Bluetooth range, typically 10-15 meters, which is usually adequate. However, nearby electrically conducting elements like vehicle chassis or seawater can reduce range further. To address this, add a VE.Direct Bluetooth Dongle and deactivate Bluetooth in the SmartShunt. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0856PHNLX | | Best Sellers Rank | #293,003 in Car & Motorbike ( See Top 100 in Car & Motorbike ) #572 in Car Batteries & Accessories #1,272 in Battery Tools #1,758 in Diagnostic, Test & Measuring Tools | | Brand Name | Victron Energy | | Country of Origin | Malaysia | | Current Rating | 500 Amps | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (3,954) | | Included Components | Victron Energy SmartShunt 500 amp Battery Monitor (Bluetooth) | | Item Dimensions | 5.4 x 12 x 4.6 Centimeters | | Item Highlight | Victron Smart Shunt with Bluetooth - Detailed In-App Insights | | Item Type Name | Victron Energy SmartShunt 500 amp Battery Monitor (Bluetooth) | | Item Weight | 0.33 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Victron Energy | | Material Type | Plastic | | Maximum Supply Voltage | 70 Volts (DC) | | Model Number | SHU050150050 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | SHU050150050 | | Sensing Distance | 15 Metres | | Specific Uses For Product | Renewable Energy Systems, Marine, Automotive, Off-Grid Applications, Smart Systems | | Style Name | 500A | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Upper Temperature Rating | 120 Degrees Fahrenheit | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Victron Energy - **Item Weight:** 0.33 Kilograms - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 5.4 x 12 x 4.6 Centimeters - **Material:** Plastic - **Style:** 500A ## Images ![Victron Energy Smart Battery Shunt - Battery Monitor 6.5V-70V, 500 amp - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31DNIElzpQL.jpg) ![Victron Energy Smart Battery Shunt - Battery Monitor 6.5V-70V, 500 amp - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51bSU9HZtuL.jpg) ![Victron Energy Smart Battery Shunt - Battery Monitor 6.5V-70V, 500 amp - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41ng5fjY3ML.jpg) ![Victron Energy Smart Battery Shunt - Battery Monitor 6.5V-70V, 500 amp - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41wUF3DlbYL.jpg) ![Victron Energy Smart Battery Shunt - Battery Monitor 6.5V-70V, 500 amp - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41Wf+nSYnEL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Where should I connect the midpoint cable for a bank of 6 6 volt batteries running at 12 volts?** A: To the positive terminal of your middle bank where it it ties in to the last bank in parallel. Assuming you have three banks of 6v batteries wired in series (neg to pos) then all three banks wired together in parallel (neg to neg; pos to pos). Two 6v batteries in series gives you 12v. Three banks of 12v wired in parallel gives you 12v plus you can now take the amp hour of one battery and multiple by 3 to determine your total amp hours. Assuming all 6 batteries have the same amp hour ratings. **Q: I have 4 battery pack of24v 100ah how many shunt should I used** A: It’s pretty unlikely you will pull more than 500 amps on that setup. 1 shunt is all you need, size it for your anticipated load. The 500a shunt you asked about would work fine for all but the most extreme installs. **Q: My lifepo4 charged voltage is 52.5. discharged voltage is 48. i can set a discharge (%) but not a voltage. how do i set a 48v discharge floor?** A: Can't set a voltage floor. Use the victron app in demo mode to test. If you are trying to shut down battery at a discharge voltage, use the "smart batrrery protect" 48v 100A. **Q: I purchased one of these last month - who do i contact for tech support/rma?** A: It appears that one of the big downsides to a Victron product is that they have no direct customer service/tech support. Everything is through dealers and distributors. ## Frequently Bought Together - Victron Energy SmartShunt Battery Monitor (Bluetooth) - Victron Smart Shunt - 6.5V-70V, 500 amp - Victron Energy SmartSolar MPPT Solar Charge Controller (Bluetooth) - Charge Controllers for Solar Panels - 100V, 50 amp, 12/24-Volt - TKDMR 10pcs 1/0 AWG-3/8 Battery Lugs,Heavy Duty Wire Lugs,Ring Terminals,Battery Cable Ends,0 Guage terminals,Battery Terminal Connectors with 10pcs 3:1 Heat Shrink Tubing --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/682729564-victron-energy-smart-battery-shunt-battery-monitor-6-5v-70v](https://www.desertcart.us/products/682729564-victron-energy-smart-battery-shunt-battery-monitor-6-5v-70v) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-10-10*
