ADS1115 Battery monitor

[Ianknx]

I am using the ads1x15_volt_meter sketch written by joelkoz from the examples list, I have this sketch up and running through Signal K and displays as necessary on instrument panel etc for one battery only.

How would I go about adding more batteries on the ADS115 ADC ? I have played around with the sketch to no avail but there again I am new to coding.

Any Help, guidance or assistance greatly appreciated.

I wrote a battery monitor that looks at voltage and current on two batteries, but I ended up using two ads1115s to do it. One of the challenges is that the boards you get are designed for a common ground, high side. So, if you want to do low side measurements, or not-common ground, you need to cut traces on the boards. There is a guy on Tindie that sells boards that don't have this limitation. Here's the Github link for my project. https://github.com/andyrbarrow/EinkBatteryDisplay *Andy Barrow*

Hello Andy

Many thanks for your reply

Bit more complicated than I thought, will do a bit more research to see if there are any other options.

Cheers
