Solar Volt/Watt Meter

The Solar volt/watt meter is a simple device for measuring input and output currents and wattage from solar panels or batteries.

The Chargeguard® digital wattmeter accurately measures DC power usage. The LED display measures volts, watts and amps in real-time.

The solar meter has a DC data scroll of eight key electrical parameters which reset every time the meter is powered off.

The DC 00meter is ideal for monitoring the output of solar panels or current draw from dc appliances such as portable fridges. 50A connectors provide an easy connection to the supply and load.

Chargeguard® is the registered name of TrailerVision Australia.
