Voltage Meter
 
Have any of you added a voltmeter to your bike?

I've got my eye on this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mini-Waterpr...YAAOSwGotWpu2-

I'm thinking of mounting on the RX3 just under the windshield support bracket. Maybe just using 3M double sided tape or perhaps even heavy duty velcro.

Before I bite the bullet and buy one, I wanted to see if anyone had gone a more creative route. From what I can find so far on the web, they are either for cars or like this...but I just might not be looking at the right websites either.

Be great to hear some feedback friends. Cheers!

I use these on my bikes, just a simple LED color coded to appropriate voltage. Easy install and takes up very little space.

YES!!! sweet. It looks like the one I'm looking at. What is all the other stuff you have going up your windshield?

Hi Rukanzen,
I see you are a fan of the German soccer team :clap:. But I have to let you know that your key fob/bottle opener is out of date. Because there need to be four stars since 2014 :yay:. Have a nice day and lot of fun with the bike!!

PS: I like your mods and I love the color of your bike.

I bought some small 3 digit meters about a year ago, seems they were $2 or $3 apiece on ebay. So far have only used one, cut a rectangular hole in my 1953 ford tractor dash and glued it in. Tractor off reads about 6.3 and gets around 7.1 when running. I been meaning to stick one on my klx too.

cool! I ended buying the one off of ebay i listed below. I like the blue color of the screen. Seems to pop out more than red. Nonetheless, I'll see update later once it arrives from China . :tup:

Just in case, how would you wire it up? ...the eBay one

You can run the wiring to the battery or add a fuse box. We plan on adding a fuse box. They can run you a lot or you can get a cheap one.
