Is anyone familiar with the Current Clamp Meter kit available at http://www1.jaycar.com.au/productView.asp?ID=KC5368&CATID=25&keywords=&SPECIAL=&form=CAT&ProdCodeOnly=&Keyword1=&Keyword2=&pageNumber=&priceMin=&priceMax=&SUBCATID=265
.
The kit appears to follow this article: http://www.siliconchip.com.au/cms/A_30669/article.html.
.
My multimeter has 5 DC Voltage ranges as follows:
Range.....Resolution
400mV.....100 microvolts
4V........1mv
40V.......10mV
400V......100mV
1000V.....1V
.
Do you think the kit would be able to provide accurate readings down to about 25 milliamps? I would like to use it to measure the parasitic battery drain on my car without having to insert the ammeter in line with a battery cable.
