hi, I was wondering were I could get a volt meter. nothing to expensive(even though a digital meter would be sweet). I dont have one in my car...all I have is the "low battery" light. which doesnt help me at all. what would be a good brand to get?

thanks.

 

It depends completely on how much you are able to spend. At Canadian Tire you can get voltmeters for $10-20, but they aren't too accurate, tend to break easy, and don't have great displays. If you have the cash, go to www.fluke.com and get one of theirs; they are durable, easy to use, and have a ton of features, but they are few hundred dollars. Most electronics shops will have some mid-grade meters as well, but I have only used flukes and the Canadian Tire meters so I am not sure how good they are.

 

sorry mabey I should rephrase my question. I want a voltmeter "gauge" that I want to install into my car. to keep track of my voltage.

 

My 1 & 2 farad caps have really cool lighted voltmeters on them

but if you want a gauge, almost all automotive supply shops have a selection.

 

I got one from Princess Auto for cheap, but I drive a bucket and don't really care what kind of gauge I am using, LOL. Not sure if you have Princess Auto where you are, but Canadian Tire (as mentioned above) or most auto parts stores should have something for you that will work.

 

wow. that gauge looks hot! pritty much the kind I was thinkin of getting. 110 hmm a lill pricey. but im likin the digital.
