I got this Victron lithium battery monitor and it works great with the Canbat 100Ah LiFePO4 battery.

Canbat is the only company I was able to find that offers free shipping on Victron products in Canada. Everyone else is charging ridiculous amounts of shipping for a product this small. The lithium battery monitor arrived in awesome packaging and even had a few free gifts.

This is a popular LiFePO4 battery monitor that is sold across Canada, but I’ve decided to buy from Canbat because of the excellent customer service they offer. They pick up the phone every time I call and they respond in seconds on chat. Canbat is based in Vancouver and they shipped it to me in Calgary without charging for shipping and it arrived in only 2 days!

Anyone buying a LiFePO4 battery needs to get a Victron BMV-712 Battery Monitor because you can’t determine the state of charge based on voltage. The battery monitor works great with Canbat lithium, but I wish they were cheaper! Free shipping helps but it’s still only a battery monitor.

The Victron LITHIUM BATTERY MONITOR is a nice addition for batteries, I can now use it to check the current and the state of charge of my batteries. Made my work a lot easier now.

WOW, this Victron Energy product is amazing. A perfect accessory for (LIFEPOâ‚„) batteries, not only it can determine how much power is remaining on the battery but it can also indicate the state of charge, the current, and even the voltage too.

Not gonna lie, I had my doubts about this because of how pricey it is, and since I live in Nova Scotia, I thought I was gonna get charged a lot for shipping too. But Canbat offers free shipping no matter where you are in Canada, amazing customer service. Victron BMV-712 Battery Monitor I received works really well, it gives you every necessary info about your (LIFEPOâ‚„) batteries. I am very happy with it.
