Hi All,
I'm looking for one of those little panel meters to be used for
monitoring the charge / discharge rate on my garage solar lighting
system please [1] (around a tenner would be fine).
Everything seems to be digital these days and whilst I could build a
little monitoring panel showing current (shunt resistors etc) I think
an analogue meter would be more suitable (in an analogue watch or rev
counter sorta way).
Cheers, T i m
[1] The charge controller I'm using has LED's indicating battery
voltage (red, amber green) and solar panel charging or not. I could
put a 0-5A meter on the input side but that wouldn't also show the
battery discharge rate (handy when experimenting with different types
of light).
Have you tried Rapid?
