There are some really handy things aboutdigital that makes life easier. One is that when we deal with voltagewe really don't need to consider which probe goes where in most automotive /Rv checks as the voltage will rarely be reversered. So just get one probe on ground and one on battery and it willspit out a reading! Itmay tell you it is negative when it is truly positive but normally all you want is a level as getting your battery cables reversed will show up real quick and way before you get out the meter!
But for ease of use at a smallprice, I have several of these hanging here and there:

I gave one to my daughter when she was having intrmit starting problems and shewas able to just leave it in the cig lighter and when she got into start it showed her battery voltage, so easy that she was able to sort the problem. She was working from home and parasitic drains were killing the battery when she didn't drive often enough!
Sounds like RV folks could find one handy? Nice to just open the door and turn on the key to check battery voltage? I finally hard wired two meters, one to coach and one to start, so that I could verify both batteries and that the mode solenoid was working, all without opening the battery compartment!
They are not terribly accurate but all we need to know is that the meter shows the same now as when things were good, so we can start to look if something is "off".
Kind of like red light/green light but with numbers?
