Re: Westach Ammeters.
Ruth,
The current draw for a voltmeter is very low. It would probably be OK to have it on all the time if the car was driven on a regular basis. Or had a battery maintainer when parked for a while. Or had a master battery switch that was turned off while parked for a while (and a battery maintainer).
In my car the voltmeter is wired to the ignition switch. I have the modern switch with the wiring changed so that the coil does not have voltage when off.
