Bronze Member Username: Whatmh5Post Number: 41 Registered: Dec-09 | what do you mean by true rms digital multimeter? is is similar to a normal multimeter? |
Platinum Member Username: GlasswolfColumbia, SC USA Post Number: 12785 Registered: Dec-03 | yes, except it has the ability to read "true RMS" (alternating current voltage) |
Bronze Member Username: Whatmh5Post Number: 42 Registered: Dec-09 | Oh, i see. And how much more do these run you? is it really beneficial in my application? I believe you also posted in my sub question, but 1 dc lvl 4 15 and aq 1200d I doubt I will be competing; if i do it will only be a few times for fun, nothing serious. |
