what is the lowest dc amperage range? I need it to read in the 0 to 20 amp range.

Yes indeed. As an auto electrician I use it for leak test u get from .00 dcv up

I got this meter for my solar system. It will read amps below 20 amps. I hooked it up on my 10 amp light set with only one light on and it read 7.5 amps. Not sure how much lower it will go but I would assume it would read much lower. Good luck...

It only tells you the voltage loss at a specfic load (15 or 20 amps). If the loss is out of line then you would need to investigate to find the cause, like bad connections or undersized wires.

I no longer have the package for this cord, but AMP charts say 20A rating. That short of a run should continuously run 20A in an open air setting with less than 1 Volt drop (120 down to 119.608), not enough to heat the cord up.

I bought it for a low voltage application...using 12vdc. It does not specify on the device the rating.

mine did NOT come with schematic or documentation of any kind. I would NOT expect it to operate a low current relay, the output will only trigger a logic level signal in the very low milliamp range. 0-5vdc

Reading "0 volts" is the same as turning the power input off, and yes, then it reads "AC 0.00 V" and the current reads "AC 0.00A".

You must to read a little amount more than 1.5 or 9 volts. For example you can read 1.523 volts but if you read 1.42 the device is over

DC Output : 19 V with max. 1.58 A current. If this is what you are looking for.

it would have to be below 100ma or it would be lethal. I just ordered mine, but have no way to measure amperage on that high voltage.

It adjusts to a lower voltage but I think the amperage stays the same, about 1-1.5 amps....

It is limited to 30 amps. You dont get more amp capacity by lowering the voltage. FYI, mine was visibly broken upon delivery. It came in a padded envelope, which wasnt nearly protective enough. I sent it back for refund.

I called their number looking up on internet and they were very friendly. They would tell you quickly. They did inform me it will not function with less than seven amps from your dc. I found a loose wire attachment in fuse area and the new one I updated(they suggest replacing every five years). Once I fixed they intermittent three amp reading by tightening even the old one worked again, but safety trumps cost.

12vdc, no less then .5mA or 500amp, it also supports 24vac. Jumpee setting to switch

The reading maxes out at 2A. The shunt can handle up to 10A, but it will just keep the meter maxed out about 2A.

It measures to .01amps. I use it for that very reason and suceesfully found a short on a 12v gmc van.

low: 15 Watts or 1.25 amps @ 12 VDC medium: 27 Watts or 2.25 amps high: 35 Watts or close to 3 amps

I do not know of any meter that does that. To read DC Amps, you have to remove a lead wire from it's termination point and attach one of the leads from the meter to the wire end. Then you attach the other meter wire to the now vacant termination point. In short, the meter acts as a part of your power wire.
