How and where do I connect the Drok meter if there is a inverter as the load and the pos + and Neg – leads are directly wired to the inverter from the battery as power source. There is already a built in shunt in the Drok meter?

I have just purchased you Drok Digital Voltmeter / Ammeter 0-199.9V / 200 A unit and shunt.
I have a boat with a 12v domestic system. How do I wire in the unit to measure battery voltage and also the total current drawn when various loads are turned on such as lights, fridge, navigation equipment etc please?Many thanks

The Label on the D69-30 has no polarity markings on it, I can get the D69-30 to power up, but no matter which way I connect the input leads I cannot get it to rear correctly. How should they be connected?
Hello Matt N,
To check what wrong it is, would you like to show us your connection by image? And did you receive two different meters?
You can attach image here or send it to service@droking.com
Best regards.

If so can I put the drok in series with the neutral wire off the electrical panel. Wiring diagram would be nice, as well.
Hello Jim Russell,
Please check if it is this item, #200444, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YC1XHKQ?ref=myi_title_dp&th=1
Please notice it is suitable for circuit with one hot wire. If your system has two hot wires, it can just monitor one of hot wire.
Notice: meter can’t be connected in series with any device. Please refer to the wiring diagram in pdf manual, https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91rRRuNV+xL.pdf

is it possible to put several hot wires; each from different power source/battery, thru the hall magnet….. IFFFF each power source wire was on a switch so that only one was powered anytime you wanted to view the data.
Of course you dont in reality want to disconnect your power from what it normally powers, so would assume you would then parallel wire…. with one leg going on to devices needing power while other leg…. which is switched…. goes thru the hall magnet and back to itself. Maybe a diode would be needed in that scenario so power cannot feed back? If that would work…. what is issues/limitations?
Or would it be less costly/more KISS to get the ability to measure more than one battery another way?
Thank you in advance for your advice.

2 questions then,
1) is it the correct product? (I purchased from amazon)
2)Should I wire for internal or external power supply wiring without relay?

February 20, 2025 at 2:30 pmPost count: 0I mounted two meters to a subpanel and I run the hot line through the middle of each inductor for each phase. I configured as a CT and the meters did not come on. Then I experimented with a standard 120v outlet and ran the meter as a shunt and CT, and AC volts displayed BUT NO amps. I need to measure/monitor amps, what kind of meter is this and how do I set it up to monitor Amps
