ABSTRACT:
A system responsive to the voltage of a motor vehicle battery when the vehicle engine is not running operates to disconnect the battery from the vehicle electrical loads prior to the point at which the battery becomes too discharged to restart the vehicle engine. The apparatus which operates to disconnect the battery from the loads is inhibited if an abrupt battery voltage drop indicative of vehicle entry is sensed, and the inhibit is maintained for a timed period sufficiently long in duration to allow entry of the vehicle and starting of the engine.
