I'm looking to build a circuit to protect a battery from being discharged too deeply. I'd like to have the load disconnected whenever the battery's charge drops below 12V or so.
Is the circuit attached below the right way to go about this? (With the voltage drop across the zener and the LED at 12V and the resistor limiting current to 25mV or so.)
Any other advice/criticism/suggestions would be much appreciated as well.
