Well, I have just got done getting a lowes Iris Alarm system installed on the boat, and am pretty happy with it.
Here's what we're sensing:
Bilge Water in two places
Shore power, including actual power used total and in real time
Inverter function
Smoke, Co in three places
Temperature in several places
Intruder (motion)
I also have a permanently installed heater for the engine room. I have the unit programmed to turn on the engine room heater when the temp drops to 35 and turn it off at 45. I can also turn it on or off manually.
The next step (maybe tonight) is to get it tied into my battery SOC meter so I can keep track of battery state.
I am also thinking of installing a sensor on the bilge pumps to notify me when they run.
