Battery Monitor Install February 07, 2018, 12:36:34 pm I will be installing a Clipper BM-1 battery monitor.Would this be a handy location (in yellow) since it's directly adjacent to the batteries?

Not real convenient to look at.I personally like to have the monitor where it can be seen while seated but mounted by the door is a place you often pass.Larry
