- the prime mover 4 can no longer be started with the first battery 2.
- the prime mover 4 cannot be started and the vehicle 100 itself can be prevented from being stolen.
- the shut-off unit 26 can cut off the power supplied from the first battery 2 to the electrical component, thereby making the prime mover 4 unstartable.
- the monitoring unit 21 controls the switching unit 22 so that the switching unit 22 always connects the power supply line + B to the ground (vehicle body 1). At this time, the monitoring unit 21 monitors the current A flowing through the switching unit 22.
- the switching unit 22 limits the current A (the charging current to the second battery 23) flowing from the power supply line + B to the ground (vehicle body 1) from the constant power line + B to 2 [A] or less, for example, by the control from the monitoring unit 21. Or it is preferable to adjust.

- the monitoring device 20 can monitor whether the vehicle 100 is stolen until the remaining amount of the second battery 23 runs out.
- the monitoring unit 21 in FIG. 8 informs the user of the current measured voltage V (or incidental remaining amount) of the first battery 2 and / or theft of the vehicle 100 via the notification unit 4.
- the notification unit 4 is configured with, for example, a display, a speaker, and the like, and can transmit a monitoring result to an indoor user (occupant).
- the notification unit 4 includes, for example, a 3G communication module and LTE communication.
- a transmitter such as a module, a WiFi communication module, or the like, and a monitoring result (for example, theft of the vehicle 100, the current measured voltage V of the first battery 2 or the like) (Remaining amount) can be transmitted in a transmission format such as e-mail.
- the user can visually confirm whether or not the vehicle 100 is stolen.

It is possible to charge with a dedicated charger (not shown), connect a booster cable (not shown) to the first battery 2 in some cases, and recover the remaining amount of the first battery 2.
- the user does not care about the remaining amount of the first battery 2 until the voltage V or the remaining amount of the first battery 2 decreases.
- the first battery 2 or the electrical component can be used.
- the triaxial acceleration sensor can also detect the movement of the vehicle 100, and the monitoring unit 21 can determine whether or not the vehicle 100 is moving with the triaxial acceleration sensor.

- GPS Global Positioning System
- the monitoring unit 21 may determine or monitor whether or not the vehicle 100 has been stolen by detecting only low-frequency vibrations by the vibration sensor when the prime mover 4 is stopped. However, for example, when a cat rides on a hood (not shown), vibration occurs, and the vehicle 100 may be erroneously determined to be stolen even when the vehicle 100 is not actually stolen. Therefore, the monitoring unit 21 preferably determines whether or not the vehicle 100 has been stolen based on the monitoring result of the voltage V of the first battery 2 (preferably, the voltage A of the first battery 2). More preferably, the monitoring unit 21 determines whether or not the vehicle 100 has been stolen based on both the monitoring result of the low-frequency vibration by the vibration sensor and the monitoring result of the voltage V of the first battery 2, for example.
- the monitoring unit 21 performs a predetermined period such as 1 minute interval until the influence of the ACG 3 on the first battery 2 is almost eliminated, that is, until 30 minutes elapse from the time zero. It is possible to measure or monitor the voltage V or the remaining amount of the first battery 2 at intervals of and to store the measured value.
- the monitoring unit 21 monitors the presence or absence of the theft of the vehicle 100 at the rate of decrease of the voltage V of the first battery 2, for example, the monitoring unit 21 has almost no influence of the ACG 3 on the first battery 2, that is, For example, after 30 minutes have elapsed since time zero, the vehicle 100 can be monitored for theft.
- the monitoring unit 21 when the monitoring unit 21 does not monitor the presence or absence of theft of the vehicle 100 at the rate of decrease in the voltage V of the first battery 2 until 30 minutes elapse from time zero, the monitoring unit 21 Forgetting to erase an item may be predicted or monitored. Specifically, the monitoring unit 21 determines that the current attenuation characteristic is larger than the past attenuation characteristic until 30 minutes elapse from time zero, and the current voltage V or the remaining amount of the first battery 2 is When the rate of decrease is high, this monitoring result (for example, “Headlight is on. Return to the car.”, “Did you forget to turn off any electrical components?”) The user can be notified via
- the switching unit 22 performs the first operation at time t1 from time t1 to time t3.
- the battery 2 and the second battery 23 are not connected in parallel.
- the voltage V or the remaining amount of the first battery 2 is reduced by the dark current of the electrical component even after the time t1. For example, after 30 minutes have elapsed since time zero, the monitoring unit 21 obtains the rate of decrease in the voltage V of the first battery 2, and the current voltage V of the first battery 2 is greater than the voltage predicted from the rate of decrease.
- the monitoring unit 21 can determine that the consumption rate of the current A of the first battery 2 is larger than a predetermined consumption rate. However, even when the monitoring unit 21 monitors whether the vehicle 100 is stolen based on the rate of decrease of the voltage V of the first battery 2 and / or the consumption rate of the current A of the first battery 2, the monitoring unit 21. Unless the low frequency vibration is detected by the vibration sensor, the switching unit 22 may connect the first battery 2 and the second battery 23 in parallel at time t1 from time t1 to time t3.

- the monitoring unit 21 can measure or monitor the voltage V or the remaining amount of the first battery 2 at a predetermined interval such as a one-minute interval, for example, until 30 minutes elapse from time zero. it can. For example, after 30 minutes have elapsed after the prime mover 4 is stopped, the monitoring unit 21 can shorten the predetermined interval for monitoring the voltage V or the remaining amount of the first battery 2. For example, after 30 minutes have elapsed since time zero, the monitoring unit 21 can change the predetermined interval from, for example, 1 minute interval to, for example, 1 second interval.

- the monitoring unit 21 detects low-frequency vibration by the vibration sensor, for example, after 30 minutes have elapsed from time zero, the monitoring unit 21 sets a predetermined interval for monitoring the voltage V or the remaining amount of the first battery 2. Can be long. For example, after 30 minutes have elapsed since time zero, for example, the monitoring unit 21 may change the predetermined interval from, for example, 1 minute to, for example, 1 hour unless the monitoring unit 21 detects low-frequency vibrations using a vibration sensor. it can. Further, for example, after time t3, the monitoring unit 21 measures or monitors the voltage V or the remaining amount of the first battery 2 at intervals of, for example, 5 hours unless the monitoring unit 21 detects low-frequency vibration by the vibration sensor. Can do. Thereby, the fall of the residual amount% of the 2nd battery 23 can be suppressed.
