Phillips Industries had introduced its V-CHECK II, a second-generation version of the V-CHECK battery status indicator. Installed on a vehicle, for example on lift gate batteries, the device displays available battery voltage and percentage of battery life remaining every 15 seconds.
Additionally, a Go/No-Go LED feature—green indicates 12.6 to more than 15 volts, yellow between 12.4 and 12.5 volts and red below 12.3 volts—shows operators if the battery is sufficiently charged for a day’s workload.
