Review on ⚡️ Omix-Ada 17215.03 Voltmeter for 76-86 Jeep CJ5/CJ7/CJ8: Reliable and Accurate Voltage Monitoring for Classic Jeeps by Reza Shoecraft

Old version, I recommend looking elsewhere

This is an old version of Omix-Ada. Thought I would save some money here but not worth it. The backlight is terrible. Only one positive wire comes out the back of the lamp housing so it is grounded through the housing. Except that the sensor's ground wire is insulated from the case, so the bulb doesn't work. Also, the included bulb will not make a good contact in the lamp body anyway, so after fixing the grounding issue I found that the lamp still didn't work due to the bad contact in the lamp body. grounded. I had to replace the lamp with another one and bend the contactors in the lamp housing to ground it properly. Finally, the voltage sensor is off, 2 Fluke testers confirm this. At 14.3 volts (engine running) the sensor reaches 16 volts. I would ditch it and look elsewhere for a newer version. The newer version has two flat contacts on the lamp body and that's a twist. It's a push.

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Not everything fits
