Hello,
Today I finally received my much anticipated DL24P 180Watt Capacity tester. It's just a blast getting new toys.
Until they don't work properly.
So I tested a NiMh battery with my multitester and it shows 1.344v.
After making sure I was connecting it properly to the DL24P, I get 0.42v ???
(Positive connected to A+ and Negative connected to A- per included instructions)
Nothing I could do made the voltages agree or even get close.
I am doing something wrong?
Any suggestions?
Back it goes! (oh wait...it came from China...only $279.88 to send it back !)
Looky here....this thing thinks the battery voltage is 0.417
Poke fun of my trusty Radio Shack multitester at your own peril. It's been feenominal !
Oh wait....now 0.420....we're making progress!
