Thanks for the refresher Patrick. I knew the function (i.e. to measure current) but I did not know where it was measuring flow from. It seems to me the Voltmeter, while not period correct willl provide greater indication of whats going on with the alternator and voltage regulator. I know the things that draw load but its not much. My alternator is acually an 85 amp version so I would guess its putting out 60 most of the time (Cobra Valley version).. Eventually, I will push the amperage up on the alternator but for now the 85 A variety will be fine.

Phil
