Dash mount & aux battery help

[yeabuddy]

Could someone recommend one of these and show me or point me in the right direction to install one?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Triple-3-1-A...6182e1&vxp=mtr

I'd like to connect it and my lights to an aux battery.
I'm a complete novice when it comes to this so additional help with a video or pictures with the parts needed and a step by step guide to tying something like this all together would be great?

Or a good place I could go to pick up all these parts and ask an associate for advice would be helpful too?

Thanks in advance. Yeabuddy!

I think I found everything I need. It was right in front of my face the whole time

Should I have any reservations about this?

I don't know how you intend to wire it but... That ad says that it is a 12 volt meter. I would think you could wire the accessory plugs to 12 volts and the meter across the batt bank for 36 or 48 volt reading, but not for sure if the volt meter will handle it.

I already have a meter on the bank so I would be wiring this straight to the auxiliary battery to measure that.

no it will not work on golf cart

The meter draws nominally 10 ma. and the range is 0-35 vdc

will work on aux battery

The description says it comes with caps for the 12v power socket and dual usb charger. That list you posted includes boots you can purchase separately for additional water proofing while something is plugged in.
I am surprised they mention the jumper, wires and a fuse in that list though. They're already included in that package.
