If your power supply voltmeter is of sufficient
resolution/accuracy, then the external voltmeter
is unnecessary.

The TP3005 is adequate to the task 'barefoot'.
Just turn the current setting all the way up,
then hook the ovm across the power supply output
terminals. Slowly increase the voltage until
the ovm 'trips' (Current jumps up, voltage goes
down). The trip should be in the range of 16.0
to 16.5 volts.
