But there is already this divider by default in the Tiny. Correct me if I'm wrong somebody in the know, but the main power supply is already connected to a voltage divider supplying an ADC port. So unless you wanted an _additional_ monitor (though I've no idea why), there is nothing additional you need to do.

You would need to make the ADC see something less than 3.3Volts. I would suggest a voltage dividing circuit. Then you would just need to write code to monitor that ADC(not unlike the infrared.c code), and create the scale so when say the ADC reads 3.3V you show a value in your messages of 8.4. AJ

    then how is that to be connected to the ADC port for monitoring ?
