I got something like this years ago from Radio Shack:

https://www.amazon.com/VIGORWORK-Thermometer-Voltmeter-Temperature-Backlight/dp/B077XH9L6H/ref=sr_1_11

It just has 2 displays that you can switch to a variety of things...
indoor temp, outdoor temp, voltage, clock, etc.  I always kept it on
Voltage and outdoor temp.  The voltage input wire I ran through a toggle
switch as you suggest so it could display either battery's voltage.  the
sensor for outdoor temp I ran to inside the fridge so I could monitor
that.  I have found it pretty handy to have that info available.
