Hello All,
I have two 110 ah leisure batteries hooked together as a single bank, but I'd like to install some kind of voltage metre that would allow me to see the voltage at a single glance. Somethin with a simple dial like the kind of thing you might have seen on cars in the 'olden' days. Are there such things, or must I always rely on pulling out a voltimeter and lifting the deck boards to check my voltage, etc.., etc..? I'd like something cheap and cheerful that I can attach to an internal wall. Again, any ideas?

Thanks.., that looks like just the trick, and the idea of the toggle switch is good!

Instead of a toggle switch why not have a simple horn button? You only spend maybe 3 seconds looking at it anyway. Press, read, let go.
 Finally living the dream!

Thanks for this Stratford. The idea of a housing makes loads of sense. I'll drop him a line. And Clive.., the horn button makes sense too.
Thanks!
