Review on πŸ“Š FARIA BEEDE 12821 Euro Voltmeter (3003.3439), black - Accurate Voltage Monitoring Solution by Kevin Harmon

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Accuracy is good for voltmeter

Bought as a direct replacement for a meter I ruined by running the outboard without a battery. There is no voltage regulator in the motor and the voltage got too high and the meter burned out. The sensor comes with all the hardware to install, the backlight works well but is a bit inaccurate. Using a volt/ohmmeter (Fluke 85) on the back of the meter shows that the meter reads about 1/2 volt below zero. Not a big deal as it tells me more about the charged battery than the charge level, but disappointing nonetheless. The construction is a bit "thrifty" so time will tell if it will hold up, but I expect it to only last a few years.

Pros
  • voltmeter
Cons
  • Slightly dented
