Its called the EV Display from CleanPowerAuto. It's a AH counter, Voltmeter, Current meter, State of Charge meter, temperature sensor. It's programmable so you select the AH capacity of your pack and the voltage that it reaches when you high Constant Voltage Stage of charging.

It also has a USB communication port that streams the data over a serial port. I'm going to install an Android In Dash unit so I can have full navigation built into the EV and write apps to log the data from the battery and the Zilla controller. I'm also thinking about an app that estimated the range left based on driving speed, current from the batteries and remaining capacity.
