Stinger SVMR (the red volt meter)

Stinger SVMB (the blue volt meter)

Type this in your search bar or on ebay and they should pop up.

np, they are pretty darn easy to install as well. just calibrate them to your battery's voltage and you'll be fine.

post pictures!

i have an idea on wer to put the meter but i have a small question ? do you know my any chance what's the dimensions of the screen ?

[emh9009 199]

and i have a post of my current set up put will be upgrading later

Also remember to read the instructions (not saying you dont) but these have a feature on them where they need to be matched with your electrical or it wont read the right voltage out. You will have to take the top off and make an adjustment to something on the inside of the unit itself, just a heads up

My volt meters scheduled to be here 2m. So to calibrate it I hook it up to my amp. Test my battery with a DMM. And set the meter to whatever the batterys readin?

[viper167 1]

ok so my meter is here !! i looked at the instructions and i dont really understand what they are saying, were exactly do i need to hook it up to ? do i wire it up to the batt up front or back at the amp ? and how do you set it?

hook it up to whatever you want to monitor the voltage....either the amp or battery

For example installing it into the amplifer you connect the (red) into positive on amp, (black) into the ground, and you can either run the blue wire to the remote on the amp or the deck whatever you choose...for convience run it into the rem on the deck

[Mac N Cheese 90]

And as for setting it up...get a dmm and record the voltage and then take the front face off the voltmeter (may take alittle force) and turn the dial i think clockwise untill it matches the voltage
