Will it give accurate current readings if used as an Ammeter for currents values between 1 Amp - 2Amp ?

It will work for current up to 10 amps if you switch the lead to the correct position.

Accurate? Probably not. It's manual states that its DC current accuracy is 3% +- 2 digits. But unless you get it calibrated you can't be sure of that.What kind of accuracy do you need? If you're considering this meter, it's probably good enough.

I don't think any clamp-on inductive style ammeter is going to be that accurate. Even the really top end ones are probably +-0.2 amps or so. You need the type that has actual wire connections.

All I have is a hand held meter with a needle. It displays 2.1 amps on start up. I am using an Active Air variable speed controller with mine. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003URBQ1M/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It wont check resistance but it will tell how many volts are going through the coil a multi meter would give you the resistance.

Yes, it'll read current no matter what's generating it. But what you really need is to put a load on the battery and see how long they last. You can calculate how much power they deliver.

Not really. I use it to set the gains on my amps, but you'd just know where the knob is at where it clips, not how much power it's putting out. Get a pair of multimeters and set one to ohms and one to volts and do some simple math.

You might be disappointed. Meter can measure down to 10 micro amps according to the manual.

I don't know what you want this gauge to do. IT measure amps volts, wattage. load, and Cycle. It doesn't know how many AH Capacity your batter is. Hope this helps RC

Two ranges, it will read out any amps but you will need to adjust the insensitivity by settings the decimal point. Otherwise you may get confused by all the numbers on display. I try to move it to the right for less numbers.

It will read 10 amps with out a external shunt. If the external shunt develops a voltage drop of 75 millivolts @ 100 amps. The resistance of the shunt = .0007 ohms. The ammeter internal shunt @ 10 amps would have a voltage drop of 7.5 millivolts. The power dissipation would only need to be 75 milliwatts. Easily done with surface mount components.

You can but it will activate the circuit because it's probe voltage is too high, so it's really not meant to. If you want to do in circuit measurements get a dedicated ESR meter. The ESR function on this device isn't really very accurate anyway, it's mainly useful for transistor testing and LCR.

Yes, this is a voltmeter, so it will read whatever the voltage is at the time, it doesn't have any memory capability.

It will read up to 100amp if current continuious, I have it hooked up to an ACC unit to monitor usage

No you can measure voltage and current and it is a true rms meter but you cant measure both at the same time.

Yes, that will work. The meter reading will indicate the value of the power source voltage. Instant battery voltmeter if that's what you want.

i dont know.just hook an ammeter in series with it and a battery and you'll find out

you can't test amps like that. only volts. and you should be getting anywhere from 12 to 14 volts on a fully charged battery..
