In that case you should definitely have received a Battery Disconnect warning and I would be taking this up with SkyTag for sure...  Rog...

I guess that sort of makes some sense - depending when your Aux drained enough to have the SkyTag run on its own battery power...

So maybe a voltage sensing relay of types to detect a slow drain and the turn off at 10.x volts (abrupt end to supply?) 1999 Defender TD5 110

Thats way beyond my ability!!!
I've asked for a status report of my vehicle whilst it was out of my custody. This way I'll see how far they drove it and when. 110 D250 SE HT 110 USW SOLD RRE HSE Dynamic Gone, wife killed it VOLVO XC60 R Dynamic with some toys Polaris RZR 900XP SOLD |

I had to contact Guy at Skytag myself for this very reason!
My battery was disconnected on TWO separate occasions over a 3 week period, never received any alerts 
Wasn't brief interruptions either, first time was 20 minutes, second time a good few hours! Starting to see a common pattern here .... not good  Guns and Landrovers .... anything else is irrelevant. |

They have just asked me to check all the voltages to the unit, Aux batt, feed into aux fuse board, feed out of aux fuseboard. Confirmed them all to be above 10v now. Been on trickle charge for a few hours.
But there are still no lights illuminated on the tracker. So I should of had a flat battery warning from them for that at least. But nothing. I've now moved on from Guy to Nick, who is part of the operations team. WOnder if he can come up with a solution for me. Otherwise I'll be sending it back for a refund, which they have offered. I don't want to go down that route but I also want a workable solution to give me peace of mind 110 D250 SE HT 110 USW SOLD RRE HSE Dynamic Gone, wife killed it VOLVO XC60 R Dynamic with some toys Polaris RZR 900XP SOLD |

Well after a few emails back and forward, I have to return my tracker unit for evaluation/repair/replacement.
Lets hope all is well when I get 1 back 110 D250 SE HT 110 USW SOLD RRE HSE Dynamic Gone, wife killed it VOLVO XC60 R Dynamic with some toys Polaris RZR 900XP SOLD |
