I got one of those with a voltmeter for under the dash. The cigar lighter I wired to the ignition for the GPS. The USB is on all time to charge the phones while we're not running. The voltmeter I wired to the battery through a relay so it's only on while the engine is running.

I have seen those voltmeters and USB ports and I have some ideas where I need some myself,
I have a 4 port hi-amp USB power supply mounted under the seat to charge my android phone, tablet, iPod and Rebecca's games.
I have also seen them that display current as well as volts,
Got my Hellwig Helpers installed. We’ll see how it feels on Friday when I pick up the trailer from my dads house (he’s got 1/2 an acre and the driveway at my shack isn’t big enough for the 26’ enclosed). I did feel like I was underpowered and the next load will be even heavier.... so I figured now would be the time for more power! My number 10 fuel plate came in and I’m just waiting on the adjustable overflow valve, seals and the 5x12 injectors to get here. I’m trying to leave EARLY Wednesday morning and my parts come in Monday (hopefully). Nothing beats a last minute thrash on the truck before 8,500 miles of cross county adventures! This weekend will be the last bit of loading into the trailer for this trip. Fingers crossed for a smooth trip without any hiccups.
Got the new 5x12 injectors in, then spent an hour and a half looking for the 6th banjo bolt for the return line on the injectors. Found it on the cross member, right under the oil pan . Went to my dads house to grab the trailer... MAN! What a difference the overload springs and injectors made while towing! Well, time to replace the rear shocks while the motor is cooling off, then install the new #10 fuel plate (I have a 0 currently). Still have to do brakes, negative battery cable and the coolant reservoir bottle on the wife’s 2014 Escape. It’s going to be a long day.
