Built‑in battery monitoring collects current and voltage data, while a VE.Can port lets you connect a Victron GX device for remote monitoring, logging, and configuration. The robust IP22 enclosure and M8 terminals make it suitable for marine, mobile, and off‑grid installations where space and reliable monitoring are essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Lynx Shunt measure battery state of charge?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe unit measures current flow through its precision 1000 A shunt and tracks battery voltage to estimate state of charge. That data is processed by the onboard monitor and made available to GX devices over VE.Can, giving you accurate charge accounting and historical usage trends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCalibrated 1000 amp shunt for high‑current systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOnboard battery monitor computes state of charge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVoltage sensing ensures better SOC estimation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eData accessible via VE.Can to Victron GX units\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat connections and hardware features are included?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Lynx Shunt combines a negative bus‑bar with an M8 shunt connection and a separate positive bus‑bar with a dedicated location to mount a CNN fuse.
