Amp/Multi meter
#21

russ, looks like a nice meter. the scale in DC is 40a, 400a, 400 and 2000 microamps. in the 40a setting you have 1 ma accuracy, so the 40a setting is probably where you would use it, not the microamp setting.

i think i might pick me up one too. i like the flukes but they are too pricey, even used.

If I told you about something someone gave me, you would find someone willing to give you two! You are the ultimate bargain shopper.

So Tom wanted to know if I had used the Klein yet. So, nice guy that I am, I interrupted my busy retirement schedule to checkout the Klein. Well, I bought it to read DC amps in the clamp-on mode. We have discussed that previously in this thread.

I turned off the charger and read the discharge rate on the battery bank from my Link 2000. The Link uses a mv shunt to get its DC amps readings. Shunts have a great reputation for accuracy and I tend to believe them. Reading and converting the MV DC by the Link is easy, so I had decided to trust the Link. Well, the Link 2000 read 15.8 amps and my ( more expensive than Tom's ) Klein read 15.3.

I am happy with my purchase, and assuming it has a long life, I will easily get my money's worth.

Unless someone can find a flaw with this unit, I will be ordering it in another day or so.
