for those looking for an easy volt gauge this may be something worth looking into. Many of us have the USB port style but China just one upped things again nice way to save some space. Thought I'd share in case this helps anyone

I've had one of those in my Amazon shopping cart for two weeks waiting on......heck I don't know. I guess I should try it out.

Has anyone tried TPMS yet?

Yes I got the cheaper set awhile back that plugged into cigarette lighter and had sensors on the valve caps and it was cheesy and only read in bars. I'd still like to do a set but I think the in tire set will be better

so how would this wire up? I see two terminals on the back, I'm guessing one goes to ground and one to "key on" power?

Where are you planning? The center warning area can be cut with razor knife no problem in the 700 most of the rest of the dash you'd be better off with dremal or by drilling a small hole in the two opposite corners of your square hole and finishing off with jig saw but razor knife is still usable.honestly I've used a knife more than anything I think. Cut a little smaller then you think it needs once you have a hole it's way easy to trim it

If you do order it grab one of these. They have them in single or multiple and really cheap. It's easier to trace onto your dash and really helps make it look more factory and finished. If you run multiple switches then it's one hole rather then trying to line up individual holes.

Volt meter is supposed to arrive today although I doubt I'll install it today. Forecast says 103 so that means about 120 in the shop! Anyway thank you @CumminsPusher for bringing this cool little item to my attention!

Hey run good wire and inline fuse to it maybe even 12 guage not that it'll ever need that high a guage but if you run light guage wire to it the voltage guage will drop when you charge something from it. A larger wire won't be effected as much.

I'd go 10. It's overkill but you want good juice to it and that'd still protect it.

Got this installed today. Very easy to hook up. I was surprised to learn that my 26" light bar, 6" light bar, and two 3"x3" cubes when running altogether do not draw as much power as the stock headlights! That is why LEDs are so great!
