theres a piece in ride magazine this month about a similar product. much smaller, neater and way cheaper. the reviews are good so may be worth chancing a tenner. try ebay search for "gammatronix" £8.99 + 75p postage.

a 12v LED Battery Monitor, voltage and charge indicator | eBay

Better still Paul Goff sells them on his excellent site <<HERE>>

....and here....

BATTERY STATUS MONITOR
The Battery Status Monitor (BSM) is a LED voltmeter designed to monitor the Voltage across a 6 or 12V battery. The BSM is protected against reverse connection and unlike an ordinary Ammeter is immune to vibration. The BSM incorporates an ambient light sensor that dims the LED for night time. Intended for mounting in the headlamp shell or in or below the dashboard on cars.

This also serves as an ignition on warning light

Under 10.75 Volts. If the battery Voltage is very low, the LED willflash red slowly
.At 12V the battery is still low and the LED will maintain a constant red.
12.5 - 13.5V battery fully charged (engine not running) the LED will show orange.
Over 13.8V battery charging the LED shows green
Over 15.25V Overcharging. Fast red flash.
12V Pt.no. BSM12V £25.95 each
6V versions are also available, also £25.95 Pt.no. BSM6V

Going to get one for the Pan as I seem to have a spare hole in my speedo dash!

Just found this voltmeter whilst looking for part on an Enfield I'm working on, Hitchcocks Motorcycles - Charging
Bottom of page, bit expensive compared with the others but I think it looks OK
Cheers
