The Story

The DC Digital Ammeter is an essential tool for marine and boating enthusiasts, providing precise monitoring of your vessel's electrical current. Whether you're managing battery performance or overseeing alternator output, this ammeter ensures your boat's electrical system operates smoothly and efficiently.

Key Features

  • Comprehensive Amperage Range: Accurately displays electrical current from -500 to +500 Amps, covering a wide spectrum of marine electrical systems.
  • Adjustable Display Brightness: Offers 3 levels of brightness to maintain visibility in various lighting conditions on the water.
  • Marine-Grade Construction: Features a splashproof front, ensuring durability and reliability in the harsh marine environment.
  • Energy Efficient: Equipped with a manual sleep mode that blanks the display when not in use to conserve power.
  • Flexible Installation Options: Operates on the negative side of the circuit by default; a shunt shifter is required for installation on the positive side, such as with alternators.
  • Includes Essential Components: Comes with a 500 Amp shunt, facilitating easy and effective installation.
  • Wide Voltage Compatibility: Suitable for 12V, 24V, 32V, 36V, and 42V DC systems commonly found in boats and marine vessels.
