Here is what I find on eBay. I don’t see a lighted screen one advertised.

Because both Tom and I got blindsided by this design failure , we both now have a " INNOVA " brand voltmeter that plugs into the cigarette lighter socket and provides both battery voltage and charging rate .
I found it at Wall Mart IIRC , mine is back lighted so it's useful at night , Tom's isn't so read the packaging carefully .
About $20 IIRC ..
I also bought one else where , it has red LED numerals and the plug is on the end of a long thin wire so you can stick it to the dash board and not have to look down to see the charge rate .
FWIW , I think these are very useful items .

Well what do you know. Took it to my mechanic and it's now 13.75. I just scratch my head. When I put the "good" alternator back in I still got battery voltage. I guess the drive on the freeway to the mechanic must have loosened something up. Maybe the brushes had to wear in a bit. By the time I got home it was at 13.45vdc. I'm keeping my volt meter with me though. I'll be testing it quite frequently until I'm sure it's not a fluke......Fluke tests for flukes.
