Yep Mr Wizard caused me to bookmark the Baylite back in April when he first posted of this meter, I only recently placed order.
After my initial tests it went back in its box, other projects taking precedence..
There is a little button on the back for both changing the display from volts or amps or toggling between them, and this button, if held depressed for ~2 seconds re zeroes the meter, so access to the backside is recommended and will play a part in how I mount mine. I was hoping for some nice cable that matches the 3 wire ribbon wire provided with the meter but failed to find something similar enough in a quick search
I have voltmeters on my dash already that are too bright. I used 35% window tint, 2 layers, to tame them down so they are not blindingly bright when driving at night.
I also replaced my high beam indicator with a blue LED, which is so bright it feels like I am being blinded by 55 watt HIDs in halogen housings from the oncoming lane. 3 layers of window tint tamed this light, but that LED bulb is coming out next time I am in the dash cluster. No dashboard indicator light needs to be that bright, except perhaps oil pressure.
