Sorry for the delay in responding, I sometimes disappear off Chief for a while especially right after the season is over

Here's the unit we used.

We really like it. You plug it right into an analog input on the RoboRio and just read the input voltage. The resistor network (similar to ILAMtitan's second photo) is internal, and there's a nice blue LED for visual feedback too. Plus, it's cheap!
