i'd guess because they are non-sinusoidal outputs and one of the meters is not true rms
I'd say neither of them are true RMS.
Good point--measuring DC current average is the appropriate setting, and there's
no DC-scale on any of my meters that does RMS measure.
Voltage, averaged or RMS averaged, is going to deliver at-or-near nonsense numbers
for the purposes of evaluating an LED illuminator.
