Volt Meter In Cigarette Lighter Location?


Recommended Posts

Anyone ever put a volt meter in a cigarette lighter location? It already has power wire ran so it'd be like a 5 minute job? Or am I just stupid?

I'm thinking of doing it ... just gotta take pics and measure it tommorow but anyone know of a round volt meter that might work?

Thanks!

you mean as a way to know your voltage? if you just need a way to monitor it they sell volt meters that plug into the lighter at walmart with the battery accessories. 15 bucks and no stress labor ftmfw

Dude I never thought about putting a volt meter inplace of the cigarette lighter location.

Thats a damn good idea.

true, but you'd have to find a perfect size and etc. i was just thinking that litle round hole looks so perfect!! but i'm guessing its way smaller than 2 and some change inches diameter which is what ALL OF THE DAMN voltmeters seem to be ..

i've looked for like 2 hrs online ..

but yeah its a good palce cuz i dotn smoke so would never use it and real clean and stuff!

if anyone finds a small one let me know
