Resistance to volts

ItsMinJunLol

Hi! I want to hook up a voltage display to my battery pack, but I don't have a permanent switch so I decided to use a potentiometer. The lowest resistance this can get is 50 ohms and it triggers the buzzer in my multimeter's continuity mode, so is it possible that I can just use the potentiometer as a 'permanent switch'? thanks!

sortof i guess, a bit of current would sip though all the time though so its more like hyper battery saver mode then off

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.
