My Hunter 40.5 came equipped with an Ample Power "Smart Monitor" (their name, not mine). Late last summer the unit which communicates with the 'smart regulator' (their name not mine!) quit. The unit was sent to Seattle for repair, and since I don't speak "Dilbert" or Geek I received the unit back repaired and installed it back in the boat. My problem at this time is that the samrt monitor is not telling my smart regulator to charge the house batteries. And, we all know that a Hunter 40.5 doesn't need any power !!! heheheCan anyone shed some light on these so called smart monitors...I'm very tempted to by-pass everything and charge my bank the old fashioned way..you know when low start the engine, charge the batteries and life goes on!I've been to Amplepower.com for some info but again if you don't speak IBM ahem then I seem to be lost.Thanks in advance for any advice!Mike Duff
