These temp gauges need batteries, so I left the fit fairly loose so they can be removed easily. Some tape or glue on the backside will secure them if needed.

Also, I didn't put any holes in the base for wires since the gauge placement on K40 lasers isn't standard - you'll need to cut/drill your own.


I used this ammeter from Amazon - I'd probably use a 20mA meter if I were buying again.
