Yes but it all depends on what you want. Nasa is a good simple gauge but limited to a single bank and 100a so no good with big inverters or alternators. Sterling is good for information, can monitor 4 pionts with volts as well current as well as amp counter. If you want duel amp hour counters for say house and electrics battery only the link 20 will do that. If you want simple, stylish and a wide range og different gauges all matching BEP is worth a look.

Just to qualify, the BM1 is rated for 100Amp continuous, and can peak to 400Amp.... we just wanted cheap and simple, and went for the BM1... it's worked perfectly ever since install....

Not for 90 quid there isnt !
Im very happy with the BM1 I fitted earlier this year.
Didnt want anything too sophistacted and I dont need multibank monitoring - I only want to monitor the house bank and keep an eye on the charge in and out. For me it does exactly what is says on the tin.

I have single battery and no inboard and a BM-1. Works great for me. Does what it says on the box.
