They look great and seem to perform flawlessly, but why the hell is a volt meter $80 retail. I live in Canada and after the conversion it comes close to $92.

How can $80 for a volt meter be justified? Either your production costs are way too high or you're over charging people. I wanted one and was willing to pay $30-$40 retail with no issues but as soon as I saw $80 I went and ordered the stinger one off ebay. It works great and is very accurate within 1/10 of a volt. My meter was $22 after shipping and everything and it works perfect, no way should another one be 4x the cost with the same functionality. I was willing to pay nearly twice as much just to have this nice looking meter but when it comes to $100 for a simple voltage meter I believe that's beyond the point where that $100 is better put towards something else for your system.

Not trying to hate, just trying to understand. Most of you will say it's better, when really they do the same thing, and both do it exceptionally good. I do understand that most of you will be biased because, well these are the SMD forums.

Handmade in the US by people who actually care about what they're doing. Excellent customer service if shit should hit the fan. More accurate and responsive than a digital LCD meter.

I could go on about the quality differences between the VM1 and the stinger you just bought. But you will just defend it till it dies, which by the way it will crap out on you.

Or I could go on about how expensive it is to bring a new product to market. But you will just say it can't be that expensive.

So, I will just say this instead. Either you can afford one, and will buy it, or not. So go on about your day.

Thanks

not many cars can get me to pluggin my ears but this one.......damn. I mean the first minute is ok but that thing just really starts digging deeper and deeper in your earhole till you cant stand it no more. Seems like it does it with relative ease....16 12's on 8 amps.........gotta love it. :)

Look at the manual, at the units specs. Compare that to Stingers specs. That alone does some speaking..

Combine that these are built and sold on a MUCH smaller scale too.

Also, factor in that these are handbuilt in CA
