I am a bit concerned about it though...did a little "bench testing" with it when it first arrived just to verify it works...with both reads connected to the same battery, I get a different number top and bottom.... just off a few tenths, but I find that aggravating. How is yours?

Since mine are on two 'separate" circuits, I have always explained the difference to the batteries or loads on the individual circuits. For the most part, when the TROMBETTA RELAY is engaged and the charging source is engaged on both circuits with little to no loads, the readings on mine are basically the same...
But, definitely close enough to gauge the readings of the charging devices (alternator or converter), and the level of charge of the batteries. Also is handy to know when the TROMBETTA REALY is engaged or open. (Better than listening for a "click" from the engine compartment)
