Volt Meters

I bought two volt meters to install in my rig by my distribution panel. One is for AC 120V and the other for DC 12V. Got them off ebay from China. They actually got here pretty fast. About 14 days.

DC Meter

AC Meter

Used a Dremel to cut out two holes then ran the wires thru the back of the panel box. Then tapped them into the proper locations to get power. These meters DO NOT require an extra battery/power source to light up the LED display.

Very nice! I see them with an amp meter built in too. Be nice to see how many amps your using when hooked up on 30 amp service.

I picked up the ones with amps for AC and DC.

The one is inline with the battery and the other has a pick up coil for the AC lead.

Just thinking out loud. If you have a 50 amp service on your rv you'd need to ac amp/volt meters. One for each 120 volt leg right????
