i was speaking with lanman and he told me that i couldnt get a led watt meter for my system to tell me waht wattage I am hitting at loud volumes. he said that i could only get amp meters that have the led bulb for the visible part of the meter.

well then i got to thinking how about just the led part of it. where would i go to get some info on making a lit amp meter?


idk if any of that made sense, but it did to me, if not ask and ill clarify it some more

thanks, matt

A lit AMP meter? Have you tried Autometer's colbalt series gauges?

example of what im talking about

Here's the english version of that site, but whats the euro conversion?

Here's the site the foreign claims dept at my work uses:

most of those meters are $40 if i did the conversion right.

All that meter does is go off the voltage your speakers is putting out. Here's how those meters work - http://www.talkingelectronics.com/Projects/StereoVUmeter/StereoVU.html

yeah thats kinda what i want, all i want is the led part of it,

think of a bass light, all it does is turn on with the bass, but i want it to work just like those meters
its just a thought though

Well, there's schematics there on that site. Each resistor has it so the light will light up with different voltages.
