When I was at HCP's January Audio GT last Saturday I saw one of our members with a digital LCD plug-in voltmeter in his 12V power socket. It looks pretty useful especially for people with sound setups and amplifiers...you want to make sure your battery's pushing 14.4V as much as possible

I did once. IMO, reliable enough pero I'd recommend that you don't use it as the sole gauge to determine the "health" and "reliability" of you batt/electrical system.

have one. exactly like badsekktor described. checks for battery and alternator health. pero like nicolodeon, i don't rely on it solely.

ok thanks. medyo mahirap kasi kapag matic. walang indicator yun sasakyan eh. ayoko naman mabitin. usually yun lang ang problema ko sa sasakyan.

Kung sa cigarrette lighter nakakabit, you are just monitoring the voltage. pag patay ang makina and walang load, ideally nasa at least 13.8 Volts ang reading. Pag tumatakbo ng makina nasa 14+ volts.

Di dapat bababa ng 12V ang battery pag patay ang makina at walang load.

I have two of them with a switch. it doubles as a lamp. it is reliable enough
with markings how well your battery is charged, or discharged
