KickAss Digital DC Watt Meter for Portable 12V Solar Panels- Anderson Connection

KickAss Digital DC Watt Meter

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 real time. This is the perfect companion to our range of KICKASS® Portable Solar Panels but can also be used with any other type of solar panel.

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
• (Watts/W) at the present moment
• Total Amps (Amp hours/Ah) since device initialised
• Total Power (Kilo Watt hours/KWh) 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 tiny 7mA draw to operate so there will be no significant reduction in your power production during usage.

Please note this product is not intended to be permanently installed inline and does not have the long term memory of a battery management system.
