    Is a Victron Smart Shunt Worth Adding to LiTime Batteries?

    I just ordered two 100ah LiTime batteries and was wondering if their BMS is robust enough or should I also add a Victron smart shunt? I don't have the batteries yet (actually, I don't even have the trailer yet!) so I have nothing to test. If the BMS gives good data and stats then I'd prefer to...

    Electrical - Tracing Wire Connectivity

    Is there a tool to tap into a wire to check connectivity? I am thinking some tool with a pin that penetrates the outer wire insulation. I have a cargo door lock that is not working. I verified the lock actuator is good. I now need to trace the two wires to find where the connectivity is lost.
