IOTA DLS-75/IQ4

Have an IOTA 4 stage automatic charger (in the large bay). There are no panels or other equipment in the  coach to tell me it's working or not, and what the state of charging is. I know it IS working by the batteries getting a charge from the Gen. Only way of seeing the state of charge is through the Javelina at the back-up camera.

I intend to install a Renogy 400W kit in a month or two and know it shows all the state of charge, etc.

Is there a hidden meter somewhere showing state of charge (other than the Javelina) that I haven't found yet?

AND...Do I need to worry about it (since I'll get the meter with the solar)?

Is there an easy add-on for the IQ4 that will keep me informed?

Thanks!

You will want a good battery monitor with your solar. This will give you some indication of what's going on with both your solar, and your Iota.
