Folks:
<<BATT is the output, and needs to be wired to the battery. Personally, I
like to
run it through the ammeter on the dash, so the ammeter correctly still
indicates
battery charge, but opinions vary on this (eg Dan Masters said to do it the
other way). >>
I have NOT read what Dan says BUT Randall, NO!!!!
You would be using what is know as an Internal Shunt instrument and that
REQUIRES a HEAVY, i.e. S/B Battery Cable size, wire.
IF you use an EXTERNAL Shunt version, the 14 AWG will do nicely!!! And
avoid the FIRE that comes with letting the "smoke" out<G>!!
For average LBC I do NOT recommend Internal Shunt System. Racer???
Maybe!?!?
IMHO, for the average LBC, a VOLT meter is way better<G>!
