I'm guessing they'd mention it if they did. Probably not. The 2.25" devices are carry-overs from the heyday of steam gages . . . hall effect sensors are the adoptees of of digital/glass displays. Hoever, there are 2.25" devices out there that are driven by a shunt.

    Subject: Re: Battery Maintainer and Dual System
    After months and months each batt arrive at the same volts within the accuracy of my cheap meter. Seems to work fine. I have a large truck (size 65) flooded, a smaller deep cycle AGM for the VW diesel and a large (65) AGM all in parallel. Quite a diverse combination of batts. Bob will have to explain how my combo works.

    Subject: 24V Systems and Contactors
    Hey there Bob, I see that the contactors that B&C supply are only for use on 12V systems; any idea of where to get 24V ones for use in the Z-Diagrams? Or can one adapt the 12V ones to use in a 24V system? It looks to me as if I would have to use a 15 ohm 10W or higher resistor to drop the voltage to the contactor coil. Jay

Jay Aircraft spruce has a 24V master contactor. Roger

That style of contactor (as are most other styles) available in a variety of operating voltages. Check out the various catalogs under "Contactors" at: http://aeroelectric.com/Mfgr_Data.html You can get many of those devices from a number of sources including: http://www.alliedelec.com http://www.newark.com http://www.mouser.com . . . and no doubt others. By the way, our 9024 series power monitoring and management devices will be available in both 12 and 24 volt versions.
