Thanks for the suggestion but the meter shown is only rated for batteries between 4 and 50 AH.
A typical 6 volt battery is a solar installation will be rated somewhere in the neighborhood of 186 AH
Today I did some research and came up with the following
A perfectly elegant, simple and well documented LVD.
Burt's Design Pad

NE555 Low Voltage Battery Disconnect Circuit
And for the timer
Elapse timer

So all that remains is the load.

I gathered all this information up before seeing your last post. Thanks for all the effort.
What do you think about Burt's design. I certainly well documented and it appear as though the only alteration that would be necessary would be a few resistance values. I'm not saying this design is better or worse than yours but it's sure laid out in a fashion that would make it possible for an individual with my talent might succeed at. PC board and all
So it appears as though all the pieces are coming together except I really could use some input on the concept of a constant load.
I agree with earlier posts that it would be advantageous but I need help on what a 25 amp constant load would look like. It would have to function within the range of 5.5 to 6.5 volts.
Mr RB mentioned that it could cost $35 dollars or so. That would not be a problem.
The impedance tester I think I made reference to earlier in in the four figure range and that before the decimal point.
and once again thank you all for all the comments.
