does this test milliamps. is it accurate?

Yes, it does measure milliamps. All multimeters test milliamps, in fact that is actually all they ever test. They read voltage by running the test voltage through different resistors, depending on the range setting. By measuring the current through a resistor of known value, the voltage can be determined by a simple calculation. I've found it to be accurate for voltage, therefore it would be accurate for reading milliamps. RichieD Inexperienced technicians often burn out ammeters by running too much current through them, so be sure you know what you are doing before using it as an ammeter.

It bases power on heart rate with an algorithm so calibrating it won't make it more accurateDo google searches for more info about how it figured out power what it assumes about the workout they estimate that it is within 15% of a real power meter but it can be +/-

I think it is more accurate than the light one that come with the 8 cup pitcher. When this tester reads 009, the included light only tester stays dark.

I am an RN and I bought this for my aging parents. From what I can determine, I tested it before I gave it to them it was accurate. I bought one for myself, another brand and it read the same so that is what I can tell you.

Not many tests exist that are 100% accurate under any circumstance and this is no exception. Though through personal experience they have been accurate both when I thought I would be clean and also when I knew I wasnt. And like many others here. Take 2 back to back and compare results. Dont worry about the shade of the line, that doesnt matter...what matters is if its there or not. And this tests states that it tests up to 50...not 75 like another reponder.

Yes, It Will Give You Results In PPM. Detection Range Is 0.05- 1.0 PPM. Thank You

Other customers have said yes to that, however I wouldn't waste anymore of my money on these Test Strips. They are worthless and totally unreliable; I took 5 strips out, drew blood and took 5 consecutive readings. The readings went from 106 to 220..........so with that kind of inconsistency, they are not dependable.

I have this meter and I do use it every day. As a matter of fact I have three. I love that it takes a wheel and the wheel has ten test strips on it. However, I can't vouch for its accuracy. I have taken my blood one right after the other with two different meters and they are as much as 20 points different. I still use it though.

Sorry, I don't know enough about milliamperes and the science of charging. I used it for numerous different proprietary camera batteries, an emergency radio as well as aa and aaa batteries.

No. It measures whole grams and tenths of ounces, but not hundredths of either.

no way for me to judge as I do not have the lab equipment to verify.I purchased this for a school experiment, it worked per instructions.

It's pretty accurate. Did a test at my doctors office and at a pharmacy store and they were all right there with almost the same results.

My best guess is NO. If it's not the same number it's probably not the same strength reagent. If you have the brochure that came with the kit, it explains that there are different concentrations of reagents and different strengths will give inaccurate results.

No, it does not measure millivolts AC, only goes down to tenths of Volt for AC. DC does measure millivolts. Yes it is accurate.

Yes, but only if good metrological practices are observed. 1 milligram = 0.001 grams, and that is the resolution of this scale.

Yes, but I don't think it's quite accurate. I have a very high max heart rate, and so it would tell me I was burning about 10% to 20% more than I was.

I have no other device to compare it with so I have no idea of it's accuracy. We use it for comparitive purposes so for that it's useful. The "manual" is very tiny page, with a tiny chart for weighting and frankly I've misplaced it. Other than that, there is little info. However it does seem very well made. I has the feel of a Fluke multimeter.
