olumpa Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 Good morning everyone, I just got my VM-1 installed so far love it! But I have a few questions right now it is wired to the radio power until I get my battery bank installed. Is it normal to see between a .5v and 1.4v difference in voltage on the dash wires over direct at the battery? If I am actually seeing this sort of voltage difference should I wire the radio direct to the battery also? Thanks everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8ten8 Posted August 2, 2017 Report Share Posted August 2, 2017 Wire your Volt Meter to your sub amp (if you have one). Your biggest draw is what you need to monitor. If I had two VM's, I'd have one wired to underhood batt and one to amp. Don't need to monitor H.U. voltage imop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olumpa Posted August 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2017 I have 4 kinetik HC2400's and 2 mechman 320a alts coming once I get everything installed I planned on wiring the VM-1 to the bank of batts. But I wanted to test the meter out didn't expect such a big volt drop from front batt to the dash voltage. Wonder if there is some kind of voltage step down from the computer in the dash.
