I want to install a 12V digital volt meter
I wanted to install a digital LCD volt meter with LED backlight display that I bought off amazon. I'm familiar and comfortable with 12V electrical and I have decided to just tie into a 12V connection...

When I installed a voltmeter I used a SPDT switch to switch the meter to read either the battery voltage or the converter voltage. The switch has a center off position.
For the converter voltage I chose to tap into the wire to the propane detector. It draws a constant low current and is on a fuse with nothing else. For the battery voltage I went directly to the battery.
There is definitely a difference between the two, especially when the converter is in boost mode and the battery is low.
