need to borrow one for a few minutes to sort out where im at power-wise on my dirt bike. The math isnt adding up on the components and lights and need to figure out exactly how much current Im using.

Let me know. I can pick up and return whenever.

Sorry bro. That's the one accessory for my meter that I don't have.
damnit, dont wanna have to go buy one... rarely would I need it.

I have four multimeters and 2 clamp-ons. If you have a multimeter take out the fuse and run it in series with the circuit you want to test. I'm in Cali this week.
yeah I could do that... but a clamp is much easier. and im not sure I trust my cheapie MM enough to give me an accurate reading.

My stuff is all Fluke
mine is not. too damn poor for fluke. If i worked in the industry I would have better stuff, but for the most part I use a MM for checking voltage at the battery and figuring load on circuits (mostly on audio setups). as long as the components are not too sensitive, the cheap ones are fine for that.

Mine are provided my company or I'd have cheap stuff too LOL
