Clamp multimeter for finding draws $30 Posted by Navid [Email] (#2069) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Navid) on Sat, 3 Dec 2016 20:35:33 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I've been diagnosing parasitic draws on my Saab and my Veracruz and wanted to let people know about a nice product. I got the clamp multimeter from aliexpress.
You basically put the clamp around the negative cable and it measures amp draw. Has settings for 2A, 20A and 100A. There was not anythung else in this price range that does DC.
Much safer as no more removing the cable and hooking a multimeter up in series ...I have once forgot to set the leads correctly fron the 10A setting to the right way for a voltage check and even shorted battery via my old meter.
The product is called UNI-T UT210E. Search for Ut210e on ebay or aliexpress and it will ship for $30 to your house.
