    Constant battery monitor

    Okay, so I just put my PC in my car this week. Everything works perfect. But my more cautious side is telling me to get some sort of battery monitor to show the life of the car battery.

    Is there such a thing?

    What are my options?

    *I did search too haha*

    look for a battery voltage gauge--- most mid grade radar detectors have one on the display, but are availible separatly if you feel you need one.

    your car should have a battery gauge on it, otherwise, as long as the car is running, you should not have any problems-- the cars electrical system should see the load as a very small audio amplifier, and should not have any problems with your electrical system unless you have made some very poor connections, or will run the computer with the engine off for very extended times (typically, more than 2 hours of runtime would be needed to run the batery down)

    Go to advance auto or autozone and buy a $15 battery gauge.

    Just a shame I can't justify a carpc to use it on anymore.
