How much math does it take to read a digital meter?


Makes me remember where too high and too are.


Considering how low the R&D involved would be, sounds like a viable
niche market here. A combo nightlight and analog voltage meter, with
high and low markers like an old barometer.

I'd buy one. (as long as it wasn't over 20 bucks or so.)

You can get an el-cheapo multimeter almost anywhere these days. Plug
it into an outlet and see if it reads between 115 and 125 Volts when
power seems to be normal. Then just watch the meter whenever you want
to turn on whatever it was that you mentioned in the OP.
