Amazon was the source for voltmeter, had to run 3 wires from cabinet to coach battery tray, not too difficult.

Good addition! IMO, this should be standard equipment. Coach batteries on our 2017 Axis 25.5 went dead, 3 days after we took delivery, when it was new. Dealer's service found the inverter/charger was bad and putting a 50 amp charge in to the batteries, burning them up. Took them nearly 3 weeks to get a new replacement inverter/charger from Thor. Now, after about 18 months and 8k miles, all's working as it should, so far. A volt/amp meter would have immediately identified this problem before damage was done.
