CarpeDiem 251 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 We have a shunt/monitor combination. Newer versions are Bluetooth only or Bluetooth and display.

Guest 12 Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I have a similar one at $25US with Ahrs I/O as well , and a $300 balmar SG200 with BT and they concur. Can't say I recommend the Balmar. Going on five yrs now. Aliexpress cycles the second decimal a bit, not that that is relevant anyway. https://www.ebay.com/itm/181595545632?hash=item2a47f02020:g:a4cAAOSwXvNZqRaS Quote Link to post Share on other sites
