For pure voltage readings, I buy this litttle unit, and wire it to the banks. Works perfectly http://www.amazon.com/DROK-Digital-Voltmeter-Voltage-Monitoring/dp/B00CHX7ZVA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8=1455586097=8-1-spons=digital+voltage+display=1 Ahmet On Mon, Feb 15, 2016 at 7:56 PM, Graham Collins via

Re: Stus-List Nav Station Panel and Volt Meter Recommendations

Battery monitors are kinda a voodoo type instrument, if you don't wave the chicken just right your reading is meaningless. If / when I get the desire to put in a battery monitor I will go with a Balmar Smart Gauge , from what I've read it is a

Re: Stus-List Nav Station Panel and Volt Meter Recommendations

I replaced the original voltmeter on my 38 with a Blue Sea Systems 3 bank digital meter. It was a bit pricey, I thought (I did find one on EBay for quite a bit less than it would have been at WM or any other chandlery), but since I've had it I have become a fan and think the expense justified.

Re: Stus-List Nav Station Panel and Volt Meter Recommendations

If one is spending $108 US to monitor voltage-only on 2-banks, it really isn’t too far a leap to spend a bit more to add in current monitoring ... I haven’t used them but the Microlog DMM-3 with a shunt would run about $130 (US) or so. Even the Blue Seas 8248 is $210 with the shunt. From:

Bill, I used some fiberglass shower panel material with a pebble grain finish once, but it didn't match anything inside the boat. Jake From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Bill Coleman via CnC-List Sent: Monday, February 15, 2016 14:10 To:

I also used the Blue Seas three bank DVM. It’s been great, but quite a bit more expensive than the Sears DVM that that you found. For the panel: the original material used by C was 1/8 inch black bakelite. I had a local sign maker fabricate a custom panel for me. He used his CNC engraving

Stus-List Nav Station Panel and Volt Meter Recommendations

Greeting all, One of my winter projects is to replace the black panel at the top of my nav station. The current panel was the home to my old B speed, depth, and wind computers. Their removal last spring left several gaping holes. I'd like to start with a fresh panel and install a volt meter
