Capacitor is not working?

When you wire in a volt meter does it have to go to the amp or batteries directly or can you just wire it into any of the 12v sources?

you can put it anywhere you want to get the voltage read out from that area: before the battery, after the amp, at the amp ect...

I think monitoring the voltage at the amp is the best info to have.

If you spend the extra to get the Stinger Volt Meter it has 3 wires.

1 of the wires is ran to the amps and that is where it pulls the volt info from.

I bought one of the cheaper ebay meters.

I have a relay triggered from my remote wire to turn on the multiple amps I have.

It gets its power from the amp dis block.

I ran a wire to the relay so now my cheap ebay meter only comes on when my stereo is on and reads the voltage right at the amps.

works good.

^^ I want to know the voltage my amps are seeing. I have a stinger one and its quick and easy gorund, remote, tapped into wires behind HU power wire ran to the input on the amp.
