- At the risk of starting something I have had a couple of cars with voltmeters and IMHO they were the most useless gauge I have ever had. It told you that the alternator was putting out 13.5 volts or

- I wish I had a voltmeter in my midget when the durn alternator was putting out 14.5 volts and fried the battery. Not sure how an ammeter would have helped. chuck
