V2Green system installations

The V2Green data logger is the most valuable tool available for fleet operators who want to pinpoint how to save on fuel costs.

The antenna transmits data to a wireless router once the car comes back home to the fleet yard or shop. The same antenna also receives GPS satellite data that will allow the fleet operator to see the exact route the vehicle traveled during each drive cycle. I regularly review vehicle mileage, top speed , battery state of charge and recharge time for my fleet customers who use the V2Green Data Logger. Data can also be transmitted through a cellular link allowing the fleet operator to see real time data through the V2Green website.
