Analogue meters??

Dazbo666 · 01-November-03, 09:42 AM

Trying to find out some ideas or guides on how to do a DIY mod so that I can make my own decibel and/or volt meters using round analogue displays.

I'm sure I've seen them done, but can't remember where??

Any advice or links would be great?!

The Musketeer is exactly what first got me the idea,and I REALLY like the look of them - I just thought it'd be interesting to try making one for myself??

and if my DIY attempt fails miserably, I'll probably end up getting the Musketeer after all..... just that I LOVE to do DIY mods

Get one at autozone. They are meant for 12volt cars batteries, so you could measure the 12 volt line in you computer.

If they're cheap enuff, I could get three, and wire them up for 12v, 7v and 5v displays...

Don't think we have autozone in this part of the UK, but I'll check Halfords and a few other suppliers...
