Rachael, I'm thinking a marine dual battery switch like this: http://www.westmarine.com/images/full/300aswitches_f.jpg Wired into a simple voltmeter like this: http://www.westmarine.com/images/full/30024_f.jpg Total cost around $70.00 Available at: http://www.westmarine.com You would be able to monitor the voltage of either or both batteries .. Depending on which you select. There are integrated units available .... But those I have seen cost over $250
