85C17 DC Panel Meter Voltmeter: A Reliable Voltage Testing Solution

For professionals and hobbyists alike, accurate voltage measurement is crucial in electrical projects. The 85C17 DC Panel Meter Voltmeter offers a dependable solution with its wide voltage range, clear display, and robust build. Whether you’re working on automotive diagnostics, industrial equipment, or DIY electronics, this compact meter delivers precise readings with minimal fuss.

Key Features

Wide Voltage Range

Available in multiple voltage options (5V, 10V, 15V, 20V, 30V, 50V, 100V, 250V, 300V, 450V, and 1000V), this voltmeter accommodates various applications. The 10V model is particularly useful for low-voltage circuits, while higher-range variants suit industrial and power supply testing.

Clear Analog Display

The classic analog dial ensures quick, at-a-glance readings without the need for digital interpretation. The white-on-black scale is highly legible, even in low-light conditions, reducing eye strain during prolonged use.

Durable Construction

Built with a sturdy ABS casing, the meter resists minor impacts and vibrations, making it suitable for workshop environments. The compact dimensions (2.54 x 2.54 x 2.54 cm) allow for easy panel mounting in control boxes or test rigs.

Easy Installation

With standard screw terminals, wiring is straightforward—simply connect the positive and negative leads to your circuit. The lightweight design (50g) ensures it doesn’t add unnecessary bulk to portable setups.

Performance & Reliability

Users report consistent accuracy, with minimal drift over time. One reviewer noted, “I’ve been using this in my solar power setup for months, and it’s still spot-on compared to my digital multimeter.” Another praised its simplicity: “No batteries, no complicated settings—just plug and read.”

Ideal Applications

• Automotive: Monitor battery and alternator voltage.
• Renewable Energy: Track solar panel or wind turbine output.
• Industrial Maintenance: Check motor and control panel voltages.
• DIY Electronics: Verify power supply stability.

Final Verdict

The 85C17 DC Panel Meter Voltmeter is a no-nonsense tool that excels in simplicity and reliability. While digital meters offer more features, this analog variant remains a favorite for its durability and ease of use. If you need a straightforward, maintenance-free voltage indicator, this is a solid choice.
