[Tex/LaTex] Remove arrow from ammeter in circuitikz

circuitikz

I'd like to remove the arrow from the ammeter symbol in circuitikz so that the symbol matches the one below. Is this possible?

Ammeter symbol

Since Version 0.9.0 (2019-05-10), the generic meter type rmeter (round meter) has been added which allows you to set the internal symbol with the t=... option.

You might then use that to create a circuit consisting of a battery, one resistor, an ammeter, and a voltmeter to measure the current and voltage of that circuit like this:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{circuitikz}
\begin{document}
\begin{circuitikz}
\draw (0,2)   to[battery]       (0,0)
      (0,2)   --                (2,2)
      (2,2)   to[R=\(R_1\)]     (2,0)
      (2,2)   --                (4,2)
      (4,2)   to[rmeter, t=V]   (4,0)
      (4,0)   --                (2,0)
      (2,0)   to[rmeter, t=A]   (0,0);
\end{circuitikz}
\end{document}

Which should produce the following output: The example circuit described, an inner loop with a battery, resistor, and ammeter, with an outer loop consisting of the battery, a voltmeter, and ammeter.
