I just purchased one of these https://www.amazon.com/NuVision-Touchscreen-Quad-Core-Processor-Windows/dp/B01H3B17R8/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 to run ZillaView http://www.evgear.com.au/zillaview.html and it works great.
If you have a Zilla controller, it makes for a great $80 meter that shows lots of interesting real time information in a very readable format. You can also download a copy of Putty http://www.putty.org/ or use another serial communication program to access the Zillas native interface. There are a couple of quirks that are worth mentioning. There is only a single micro usb port, which also acts as the charging port. This is not an issue in my case as the "up to 6 hours of battery life" is plenty for my needs. You will need an USB to serial adapter which I already have https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=3726. Also, I am not able to get ZillaView to recognize input from the Windows 10 onscreen keyboard, but again I already have a bluetooth keyboard https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Bluetooth-Keyboard-Android-Devices/dp/B005OOKNP4 so that was not an issue for me. Overall I think this is a great device. It is nice to be able to try different speeds in different gears and compare motor amps/volts to battery amps/volts, and also see the RPM of my motor. I already have an Evision meter in my truck which shows me all the battery side information, but when I compare the ~$700 I paid for that, this solution seems like even more of a bargain.
