Does anyone know where to get this?
« on: September 15, 2012, 08:08:30 AM »
When we went to the Wide Bay Camping Show, a bloke was selling a digital battery condition gauge for $20.00.
It could be wired in to monitor the battery.

Now, because i'm a bit of a dill, i didn't buy one, but now i want one.

Does anyone know who or where i can get one? I've been looking around and stuffed if i can find one.

Cheers

have you looked on ebay? prob get the exact same thing from china for $5 delivered. iv found this to be the case with most anything like that electrical you can buy locally...have a 3 gang 12v outlet with seperate switches for each outlet and usb charger comming from china as i type for $7 delivered, best thing i could find locally and it doesnt have seperatly switch outlets was $20.

I didn't know Jetcrew did that stuff.

I'd rather buy from a swagger than a stranger.

I'll give him a bell on monday.

x2. I got one of these from Mandrake. Good little unit with all the info you need, great price and you're buying off a fellow swagger. Can't go wrong IMO.

I got the jaycar one, stuck a ciggie plug on the end, and it gets bluetacked in the cab (I have a ciggie plug wired to the 2nd battery) or shifted to the camper when camped.  Works well.
