Watt Meter with Anderson Plug

Details

Watt & Power Meter for use with Solar Panels


This simple yet extremely handy device gives a digital display of exactly how much charge your panels are actually producing. It has been difficult to measure this without special equipment or expert knowledge - until now!
The device is easily installed and provides you with all the key ratings of your solar panels in realtime.
This is a perfect companion to our range of KickAss Portable Solar Panels but can be used with any type of solar panel aswell.


Installation is easy - the watt meter has two anderson plugs, and is installed in-line between your solar regulator and batteries/load. Simply connect the solar panel regulator's output to the "source" side of the watt meter, and connect the battery/load cabling to the "load" side. Once there is power flowing through, the device will initialise and show you a full range of ratings including:

 

·         Current (Amps/A) at the present moment

·         Voltage (Volts/V) at the present moment

·         Power (Watts/W) at the present moment

·         Total Amps (Amp hours/Ah) since device initialised

·         Total Power (Watt hours/Wh) since device initialised

·         Highest Voltage Maximum (Vm) since device initialised

·         Highest Power Peak (Watt Peak/Wp) since device initialised

·         Highest Current Peak (Amp Peak/Ap) since device initialised


The Solar Watt Meter only requires a a tiny 7mA draw to operate, so there will be no significant reduction in your power production during usage.
