If only you had known the battery voltage was getting low, you could have proactively replaced the battery. With EZ Fleet Tracking’s low battery voltage alerts you’ll never have to experience that again. Never again will one of your drivers call you to tell you that the battery in their vehicle has died. Never again will you get behind schedule due to the down time of one of your vehicles because of a dead battery.
