Description
ReadyShunt is a battery meter and DC current sensor that provides visibility to critical battery information including SOC (state-of-charge) and other key metrics essential to battery and off-grid system health. It supports lead acid, lithium, and other battery chemistries. ReadyShunt easily snaps into a ReadyRail-equipped Morningstar product. After following operating manual instructions to connect your battery, the ReadyShunt is recognized and activated.
Part of the ReadyBlock suite of add-on– yet built-in– functionality available in Morningstar “host” components featuring the ReadyRail expansion system.
- “Add-on” in the sense that ReadyBlocks can be integrated into a system at any time, either on inception or later as needs arise
- “Built-in” because once added, ReadyBlocks become part of the host component, seamless integrated into both its hardware and software

Morningstar’s ReadyShunt is part of the ReadyBlock suite of add-on-- yet built-in-- functionality available in Morningstar “host” components featuring the ReadyRail expansion system. “Add-on” in the sense that ReadyBlocks can be integrated into a system at any time, either on inception or later as needs arise. “Built-in” because once added, ReadyBlocks become part of the host component, seamlessly integrated into both its hardware and software.
No additional configuration or connections are required. ReadyBlocks automatically activate, are recognized, and are ready to go immediately after being snapped into a ReadyRail.
Features
- Provides an integrated “battery meter” for lead-acid and other chemistries to determine SOC and other health metrics
- Net battery current measurement enables system-wide maximum charge current into the battery when multiple charge sources are present.
- Current measurement data is automatically integrated into the GS LiveView dashboard, data logging. Thus there’s no more clunky 3rd party meter add-ons requiring different interfaces, meters, etc. No software configuration to integrate the data – we do that for you
- Shunt data is made available to the user for use in logic configuration for decision-making.
- Highly configurable to accommodate a wide range of shunt sizes with both 50mV and 100mV scaling options
- Available in a kit wit 50mV/500A shunt or just the block
