Hayman Reese SmartCheck
First wireless battery monitor for trailer breakaway systems makes complying with the law easierHayman Reese has released the first wireless battery monitor designed to ensure the fail-safe operation of trailer break away batteries.
The new SmartCheck provides visual and audible signals to the driver showing the battery powering the break away system is working correctly.
As most caravanners would know, breakaway systems automatically apply the brakes on a caravan or trailer in the event it becomes unhitched from the towing vehicle, and are mandatory on all caravans and trailers in Australia with a gross trailer mass of over two tonnes.
Some states such as NSW also require a battery monitor unit like the SmartCheck be installed to ensure that the battery powering the system never fails.
According to Hayman Reese, SmartCheck is the first plug and play battery monitor available that does not require wiring from the battery to the display unit in the vehicle, making it extremely easy to install.
As well as monitoring the battery on break away systems, SmartCheck can monitor up to three other batteries located on the vehicle, or on the caravan or trailer. These could include batteries powering fridges, freezers, and other appliances.
