Cetec drifter settings

[anton Smith]

Hi guys,

I managed to reset my Cetec to a default setting and now it does not show the battery time remaining. Anyone know the set up to add this back in? The manual is very vague.

The Drifter control panel needs to "learn" the battery again. Have you set the battery capacity? If so, you then need to let the battery discharge until the Setek cuts out, so leave a couple of lights on and the tele. Once done, charge right back up and repeat. When you have done this twice the gauge will give better indication on the state of charge.

It's a pain in the butt but it works.

Thanks @Bmhdg76.

We are heading south for a week so will give that a go.

@anton Smith just make sure you have set the correct amperage on the drifter for your battery capacity.
Under the Advanced Settings section page 11

@Bmhdg76 thanks for your help and the manual. My manual only had 8 pages and wasn't that clear.
