version of the TM-2020. It can handle 12-48V and can display
Watts.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

size=2 face=Arial>You can also use the Bogart PentaMetric. It will cost more,
since you will need a "sending" unit, a display and it can even add a serial
interface to talk to a PC. Speaking of "PCs", you can also add a greenMonitor
Lite with the PentaMetric option. It works pretty well and can send email and
has a small web interface of what is going on. Of course, all that will add up
in cost...</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

so sorry for bring it up) is the MidNite Battery Condition Monitor. It is a
simple device that keeps track of when the last time the batteries made it to
Absorb. It is a simple & cheap "idiot light" style
meter.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>Wrenches:<BR><BR><FONT size=3>An off grid client has a system monitor
that has not been very a satisfactory. I belive it is a Trace Meter
500. It is not calibrateable and the results are not reliable. Is
there a newer monitor that will show battery voltage and charging and
discharging amps and amp/hours that any of you could recommend?<BR><BR>Thanks in
