Why does the description say 2000mF and the meter printing only show 20mF

I just read the 2nd answer which was already posted. I agree with their answer. The meter will measure up to 20,000 microfarads. That is definitely the same as 20 millifarads. You will probably never run into any capacitors above the value of 5,000 to MAYBE 10,ooo microfarads. Good luck, Bob KB3VS

Not sure about the description, but the meter will measure UP TO 20,000 microfarads (20 millifarads (mF) = 20,000 microfarads (uF)). Capacitors above that rating are not all that common, so that is an adequate range for most users.

Hello sorry for the delay, it dosent said the mA anywhere neither on the box or ln the device, but normally it should be very low due to the high output voltaje. Either way is the voltaje what dose really make different.

I am having the same problem...brought it back 3x without success...also temp guage not working properly either

How did you try to measure 24 volts? If you used 2 twelve volt batteries in series make sure they were connected one + lead to the other - lead. Or try to measure 3 nine volt batteries snapped together. You should get 27 volts. I think there is a calibration pot on the back of the meter. It is very small and you will need a jewelers screwdriver to adjust it. Make sure the red lead goes to the + termingal of the battery. Try again and let me know. You could have a bad batch of meters. Mine worked very will on my power supply that goes up to 27 volts. One last thing...are the 24 volt batteries you are measuring good batteries? The meter might be telling you that they are not. Hope this was useful. Also be aware that all meters have a percentage of error. Some are + - .1% + - .01%. No matter how expensive the meter it will have error tho very small. The smaller the error, the larger the price. These cheap but beautiful meters are good enough for battery monitoring. I wouldnt use them to build a computer power supply.

This is a frequently asked question. The voltage was apparent, however the amperes was guess work and I got the 50%-50% choice wrong. I emailed the seller and they replaced it no charge so I used the other wire. The meter has worked flawlessly for several months.

I read about 3 milligauss with the meter right against the cable connection at home with Comcast cable. I read off the charts from the electrical receptacle which is about 1 foot away from it though. Maybe your reading something else at the same time?

Yes, set the scale for DC range, and place the two probes using the correct polarity so the meter reading is a plus (+) reading. If the batteries are under load when doing this, the voltage may be less than 24vdc. If the two batteries are not connected to the trolling motor, the reading could be 24vdc, otherwise, if near zero or substantially less than 24vdc, the batteries are either bad, shorted, etc. or need recharged. Also check each battery separately.

I don't know where you are getting the number 208. If you are testing the voltage and it's reading 208, then you might have an electrician look at it. Voltage will fluctuate on any line, but most of the time the fluctuation will go slightly higher, or slightly lower, but just a digit or two. In USA the normal is 110 or 220 for household use. If your line has been run a long distance, it might account for the drop; just know that some devices are sensitive to low voltage and the situation might cause the device (or the device you are charging) to over-heat. I would talk to the manufacturer as well as a competent electrician. I don't know where you are getting the number 208.

The transducer I bought had speed and temperature along with the transducer. You probably got the one without the speed and temperature.

No.. But I understand and have measured the device used 20maSooooi. Add 20ma to your total when you need to know the whole usageI tested using a split USB cable and 2nd meter

I highly suggest you check the output voltage. This has no built-in display, and you should not assume it is the voltage you want when you take it out of the anti-static bag. As you adjust the output voltage, the meter reading will increase when turning the pot in the direction that increases the voltage. Make a note of the direction when you first adjust it. It doesn't jump back to max. It goes to max or min and stays there if you keep cranking on the screw.

The MIN/MAX button on the right shows 3 temperatures, high for the day, low for the day and current. Maybe you need to push the button to get to the current indoor reading :o)

I have a watt meter plug into the generator and the reading is always dead on at 60 hertz.

the printed spec for the fuse is "200 ma / 500v". this is the spec in the meter instructions for the fuse.hope this helps. buy the way, this is a fantastic meter "vom" for the price!

Thanks very much for the response. After entering my question, I figured out how to fake it myself with what I've got. I just put the cost of electricity at 1.00 per kWh. So now after any amount of time, instead of it telling me how much money I've used each month/year, etc... I just read how many kWh I've used each time period. Sometimes you have to be smarter than the $20 device, but it isn't always easy. :)

Mine has "400mA" printed on it, like this photo http://www.voodoolab.com/images/p_ppiso5_lg.jpg

I'm sorry....I can't answer that, but, if you call the company that made your meter....they should be able to answer your question.
