	Thanks for a great walk through on how to hook up the gauge! :)  The
only thing is that the back of my gauge has two terminals which are
labeled "+L" and "+B", I assume the +L is for the line in (i.e. from the
alternator) and +B is the connection to the battery. So when the gauge
actually reads "0" that means that there is nothing drawing power from
the battery and nothing is charging it right?  The gauge itself probably
draws minimal amount of power.  That shouldn't be a problem since I've
got one of those solar battery chargers. Oh, and the gauge is VDO of
course :), thanks again for the help.
