And some of us don't like to fill our boats up with scrap.

I have a Link 10 and think its a great meter. Real handy for determining
how many amps your battery charger or alternator are putting out not to
mention current draw and voltage measurement.
I have heard they are on sale at Steveston Marine for $279 Cdn.
You might want to call them Phone (604) 733-7031
'Course you have to buy the hookup cable which is a bit pricey.........


Nonsense - all you need is some generic four pair #22 or 24 cable -
actually, three pair, or three separate twisted pair cables, will do,
if you don't need the optional temperature sensor. I used some scrap
cable I found at work (but I do realise some people won't have access
