Looking for a DC AMP meter / gage

[Eck]

Anyone out there happen to have, or know where I could get, a DC AMP meter / gage that is as the one shown in this picture or (one very similar)?

 

I have burned up Google searching for this AMP meter...and am having no luck.. Though just maybe someone out there has one sitting on a shelf in the barn..

Not right off hand I dont Eckster but will keep my eyes peeled.. Got a neighbor who does a lot with old tractors, will ask him next time I see him. Any chance you could have the one you have repaired?

Is it internally shunted? I may have one in a box at home, but won't be there for a few more months.

 

In the meantime, you might try surplus sales.com, electronic surplus.com, bmisurplus.com, or mendelsons surplus in Dayton, Ohio. Fair radio in Lima, Ohio may have something too.

 

Good luck!

Thanks !!

Wish I did have an old one Puc. The one in the picture I attached is just that, a picture of what type of gage I need to continue the re-build of that old Auranthetic mini bike I am working on.

The Auranthetic mini bike I have does not have the old Amp meter in it. It is missing..

I did a search of Auranthetic mini bikes and found that picture which shows the original type DC gage / meter and now I am looking for one like it.

Are you after just the meter its self, or that whole big orange housing too?

Here is one on eBay. Same company. Same size? But in milliamps. Perhaps it can be adapted?

And another:

And if you wanted a voltmeter in the same size instead of an ammeter, you have this one. Perhaps you could swap the case from this one to the ammeter with the cloudy case?

Do a search for "Emico". Apparently what Electro-Mech was renamed. Same instruments.

Man I have been all over E-bay and several other sites looking for one and here you come up aith one in a day or two.. Dang your good.

The first one is what I will try to buy. The second one, it stats the needle bounces so it may not be repairable.

Thanks for the lead and I will let you know if I am about to get it.

I will even pay the buy it now price just to get it. I wasted hours of time looking for one and I really don't want to waste more time trying to find another.

Again, many thanks!

Actually, I just saw your request this morning and I spent maybe 15 minutes looking around.

Glad I could help our senior citizens.
