Any cheap $10 one would do, set to read DC.

By "effective DC-equivalent voltage" in this context I mean the following:

- When the Jag is being commanded to output 100% voltage, the meter would read 12V at the Jag's output.

- When the Jag is being commanded to output 50% voltage, the meter would read 6V at the Jag's output.

- When the Jag is being commanded to output 0% voltage, the meter would read 0V at the Jag's output.

- When the Jag is being commanded to output -50% voltage, the meter would read -6V at the Jag's output.

- When the Jag is being commanded to output -100% voltage, the meter would read -12V at the Jag's output.

etc


Haven't actually tried it though. Anybody got data ?
