Chet,
I just installed the TM-2020 and love it.  It gives amps, volts, 
amp-hours used (expressed as a percent of battery capacity as well as 
AH), days since full charge, days since equalized, and more that I 
forget.  I bought a 500 amp shunt as well.  The price was reasonable, 
and the unit is very nicely made.

Here is the company website:

I have no affiliation, just a satisfied gonna-be looper.
