Adding External Meters to DC Throttles

Typical analog meters must be added before the reversing switch. 'Centre zero' meters can be connected after the reversing switch. Digital meters could easily be added to the output of a DC throttle so that they indicate, volts, current and polarity of the output. Many digital multimeters are less expensive than analog meters and often easier to find locallys. Each digital meter must have its own battery or short circuits/sneak current paths will be created between the meters wich could dammage the meters or give false readings. The battery for the digital multimeters could also be switched by an optoisolator powered from the pack's auxiliary output so that the meters are turned off when the thottle is off.
