Windshield replacement went sideways

[grein002]

I installed an Ancel battery monitor that mounts to the battery and uses bluetooth to connect to an app on my phone. It displays the battery’s voltage.
I hardly drive the MME so I need to know what the SOC is.
One thing that should have been addressed during design.

Is this the one you purchased?

I'm not exactly sure which one he was referencing, but I have this one on several vehicles.

You will find multiple listings for it.

The smartphone app looks like this:
(My Mach-E is sitting outside the RV plugged into the EVSE, so obviously the current voltage of the 12V AGM isn't its true resting voltage)

Sorry to hear that. Glad it all worked out.

Did the actual glass install go well? Did you go with OEM replacement?

Glass install went fine, other than having multiple arguments wtih Safelite about not wanting them to recalibrate the ADAS (for $500, yikes!). Had to explain multiple times that the ADAS system is defective and needs to be serviced first (I get the frequent Front Camera Fault issues from TSB 23-213 and I will just let Ford fix that and recalibrate the system at no cost - plus the system self recalibrates if other forum posts here are to be believed).

Strangely, so far I haven't actually had any camera faults since the windshield replacement - don't know if that's just luck, if the removal and reinstallation of the camera housing has fixed it for now, or if the faults were becoming more frequent due to the battery failing, but I'll watch it for a few weeks before I start to think anything was actually improved.

Didn't get OEM glass, just went with the cheapest Safelite option. So far, haven't noticed any difference - except the only real visible Ford oval badge isn't on my car anymore.
