Paul;

Sorry...I cant agree with you on that because it's just not true...Ampmeters with their heavy gauge, direct Battery connection if haphazardly installed, with wires running over sharp sheet-metal edges certainly would be, but so would a poorly installed Voltmeter be...fact is that properly installed Ampmeters are no more a fire hazard than any other powered wire...like for instance, the heavy gauge, direct Battery connected wire supplying the Ignition Switch...and every car has one of those!
