Digital Battery Monitor

[bfoxg8r]

I recently added a Sure Power 1314 battery separator to my Rover. This automatically charges the aux battery once the main battery reaches 13.4V.

I wanted a way to monitor the voltage of both batteries. I bought a very small digital voltage display on ebay, a on/off/on switch, and a push button switch to manually connect the batteries. Total cost was about $30.

Sorry for the bad picture. It actually looks better in person.

I like it, do you have a link to where on Ebay you bought it? How does it connect to the batteries? Looks nice and clean.

I bought it in green from this seller:

It's wired so that a + lead from each battery goes into the three way switch. The switch is then wired to the voltage display.

Hope that made sense. It's really a simple install.
