    Argus Analyzers Battery Bug

    Battery Bug Battery Monitor

    I'm wondering if anyone has tried this. I do have to say that it looks interesting - although maybe a little bulky to mount neatly on the dash....




    "Having tested this device it its various development stages on several bikes and over the course of more than 20,000 miles, I give it my enthusiastic endorsement as the most useful, practical, and accurate device for reporting real time voltage and battery condition."
    -Stu Oltman, Wingworld Magazine

    I first learned about this device here: Yet Another Voltmeter, Triumph Rat Forum

    And after a little research found this forum topic with great pictures of it and some discussion regarding issues with it when used on Big Dog motorcycles:

    So does anyone have an experience with one of these? Seems like a great idea for someone interested in monitoring their charging system, but may have some quirks. Mounting it won't be the most convenient task either...

    I like the graphic display but have you looked a Signal Dynamics' LED Volt Meter? I have one and LOVE it! The LED is a tri-color in the upper left corner of the right display, where the ABS LED would be if my VFR had it. I've a gallery detailing the install...

    Da CLIK!

    Yes, I'm crazy but I'd have to be nuts to admit it...
