| Subject: | Voltmeter advice needed |
I'm looking for a small digital voltmeter....voltmeter ONLY, if
possible. I want to install a voltmeter in my panel to monitor my
timing advance (this uses less than 2 volts). I realize that I can
buy a multimeter, but I don't want to have to figure out what to do
to make all the other functions go away and leave me with ONLY the
voltage reading. This way I hope to be able to mount just the display
somewhere on the panel (I'm running out of room) and read only
voltage, which will be under 2 volts in this application. Anybody
know of one, or able to steer me in the right direction?
I have a couple of digital multimeters, but looking inside and seeing
all the extra crap that I don't need, made me decide that there must
be an easier way.

Hello Lynn, try this link - - http://search.digikey.com/scripts/DkSearc
h/dksus.dll?Detail&name=811-1016-ND . - It requires a 5v power supply s
o 3 AAA batteries in series should last a long time,,.The meter measures +/
-2v with a digital read out. Hope this helps. CRG

Hi Lynn
Have copied below one that I am about to fit, quite small
Regards
Keith
I suggest this one as it is clear and small and easy to mount. This=0A is w
hat we have in the boat, permanently running as it only draws 3mA =0A(a LED
is 20 mA). -Permanently connected is interesting as you can view =0Athe
no load state of the battery, at any time.-
