Where is the internal shunt? I've an application for 20A. Therefore, I believe, I need an external shunt and need to cut the internal one.

the meter does not have an internal shunt. you must buy a standard shunt 0.005 ohm and use 100 ohm pot to calibrate the meter to read 20Amp.

Hello Nancy, i have had the same problem, but the slit is there. You have to search/feel inside the bow, in the "fur" where the plastic tube is in. This slit in on both sides at the end of the bow. Succes!

Solder it to your main positive and negative nodes on your motherboard. make sure the amperage and wattage are useable.

lowes or home depot in the conduit you have to cut it yourself to size hope this helps

No you don't need a external power source that's the whole point of this one over other ones that require it red wire is in parrelel with load yellow wire is in parrelel with the shunt along with the ground the shunt is in series to the the load and power source the current is sensed through the voltage drop across the shunt and the voltge is simply measured from the red wire to the black wire last picture has a very simple schematic

Send it in. The 60-65 charge to have it done is far better and cheaper than u know. The s3 needs to be soldered in. Ive tried doing and its a mess without spending 300 dollsrs on specific tools.

I opened up and completely gutted the device (was re-building into a magnetic mount, just wanted the charging circuit). I found the chirper unfortunately directly soldered to the board, not on a wire lead as I was hoping. I'm not sure if the unit will continue to function appropriately without it installed. I may go for it anyhow, it's annoying.

Calling CTA and Amazon....can you please state the applications for this tool on the product page?!?! This is only the 39th time this question has been asked. Great tool, though.

I looked for images of this device online, and there are both (with and without). The one I installed did have them, but I'd bet they're internal at this point. Hope that helps.

Im sure you must be Jim from the Budgetlight forum......... I was going to tell you that you need another soldering gun to replace your broken one. I see you got it fixed....If you would have called the company they may have sent you out a brand new pen itself. FYI in case your element goes out prematurely.

The shunt is needed to carry the current u are using... the meter mesures what is going thru the shunt ..some meters have a internal shunt (only 10 amps)or soo this meter is 100 amps. any more ? Drauschmachin@hotmail.com

Its internal.....this part will be the fix which I purchased but did not use. Once I took apart the laptop I easily soldered the square part that had broken connection on this board. I used enough solder so it wont happen again, and will keep this piece for backup. If you cant solder use this to fix it, it's plug and play. Also if you need a step by step just Google the laptop model with DC fix and you'll see how to take the laptop apart. Pretty easy.

Didn't know it had one. I just pushed it in by hand. I'll take a look and let you know.

Ok i think i remember here is a bigger picture http://www.gilmour.com/wp-content/uploads/20-18.jpg i think i did have to drill a hole in the black plastic [your mileage may vary] and then the extension 'clipped' onto the black plastic tube

Actually, this oil drain thing didn't work. There wasn't clearance on my Craftsman 21 hp vanguard, the drain plug is too close to the steel frame/base. I don't know the setup of your 16, so look first and see if there is enough clearance for the 9/16" or bigger wrench flats that this thing screws in with . The fix is a straight pipe with same thread as your plug, long enough to extend into open space for draining, and a 90 degree elbow turned down, and a plug. Bring your plug to plumbing department and know how long the tube needs to be. Shove a wedge under it so she doesn't get bent somehow. Sounds like a goofy technique, but is better than what we started with .. an oily mess. Good luck. Actually, this oil drain thing didn't work.

I can't say whether a shunt is included or not. I didn't buy this unit I went with the Victron instead which is complete front to back including Shunt
