Paul,
I bought Aero Electric's volt / load meter which comes with a
shunt. You should, if possible, keep the "big" stuff outside in the
engine compartment. Remember ACS has just "people" working there and
many do not know anything about airplanes except they are "up there". I
find the volt / load (amp meter) very nice to interpret as I don't care
how many amps are going, just the percentage is fine. I have a dual
electrical system and have the volt/load system monitor what ever system
I have on line. Works fine (over 75 hours to date) :-)))))))))
