much on different cycles. Good for checking generator Hz output. Great
to see what Tvs , Vcrs, radios etc all pull at rest and find the power

clamp on digital ampmeter that goes to 0.01A a 35$ Greenlee and do your
own energy audit.


OK, I'll bite. Assuming the Greenlee you refer to is a hole punch, how
is it used in the audit? Do you punch holes in boxes so you can pull a
loop of current carrying conductor out to clamp the ammmeter onto? G
(That's "amm", not "amp" BTW.)

Jeff,
Don't you just hate it. It's ammeter, not ammmeter!
