<DIV>Or if you want data quick and easy, the AstroFlight Whattmeter provides a
direct readouts up to 100 amps, 60volts, 6,000 watts. Also shows
the</DIV>
<DIV>amps put in during charge. It does not have an internal battery, it
needs at least 4 volts from the battery under test/charge.</DIV>

Let's see: amps times volts equals watts for DC circuits. So, if you
<BR>> know the source voltage (with a voltmeter) and the current (using
an <BR>> ammeter), you can determine watts. I use a digital voltmeter and
a <BR>> Sears Craftsman 82062 DC/AC clamp meter for the respective
<BR>> measurements. I don't know what the upper limit is for the Sears
<BR>> clamp meter, but I have used it to measure about 50 amps. It
appears <BR>> to be very accurate (compared with sophisticated bench
measurement <BR>> devices) and costs less than $49.95 (occasionally
$39.95 on sale). <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> Ron Van Putte <BR>>
