John;

I have no problem with enunciator lights to immediately draw attention to an abnormal condition...after that, we would look to gauges (if we had them!) for more specific info...

I even wired an obnoxiously loud beeper on a T fitting in parallel with the tubing running off to Oil Pressure gauge in my 1800, because there is no Oil Light in early 1800 vehicles...but loss of Oil Pressure, I want to know about, immediately!

When it comes to electrical gauges, I prefer to see Amps, and I've presented my case, Paul prefers to see Volts, and apparently that's also enough for you...but that's why they make Chocolate AND Vanilla!

Cheers
