Round or Retangular: Well it is easier to DRILL a round hole, or CUT a Retangular, but it's easier to DRILL than CUT.. I'm serious that's the only differnece.
However I'd not recommend either of those meters, I would want at least a 3 1/2 digit meter (those are 2 1/2 digits)
1Y.ZZ like the plug in model someone posted a link to
(You ask what is a "half digit" well the 1, Since it can only be a 1, they only put in the segments needed for a 1, So that's called a "half Digit".
NOTE: Some meters are designed for use on 25 volt vehicles so they would be full 4 Digit meters (work on 6, 12 or 24 volt)
But the bottom is I want at least 2 digits to the right of the decmil. Since SOC is a matter of HUNDREDTHS not tenths of a volt .
Why do I need 2 places after the decimal? Does it really matter if I'm at 12.4 or 12.3 due to rounding? If my meter reads 12.2 or 12.3 it's definitely time to get some charge going and if it reads 12.7 but is really 12.6 does it really matter?
