It takes me about 10 - 15 minutes to check all of the cells in my bank.

to open those cells with the boat in motion, sloshing battery acid
around.
If a meter will give me reasonably accurate information, which I can
verify
from time to time with a physical check of the electrolyte when it can be
done safely, so much the better.


Well, buy a Smartguage then!

I've been looking at them. Can't find a US source on the internet. Also
looking at the Xantrex Link 10. Part of me says that since it takes more
wires to hook up and uses a shunt, its information should be more accurate.
The other part just says, "duhhhhhhhh"
