In an earlier post you stated that the combined resistance of 10 paralleled devices was 0.3 Ohm am I correct in assuming that you meant 1.03?I cut one open earlier and it has a white center. Any idea what that volt symbol means? I couldn't find either a resistor shaped like this or that voltage symbol in my searches.
You really must learn to proofread your posts.I get 0.3 ohm for all 10 in parallel. I get 10.3 ohm for one single one. confirmed across a few different tests.
Thanks for that! Sincerely I hadn't thought of that! --- I really must endeavor to view matters with less abstraction...That's a new meter. If JeffM doesn't know how to zero the ohms scale, that could explain the discrepancy.
That makes better sense 1 Ohm would be useful as an I{sense} resistor in certain PWM drivers, etc...I ran it through my bench meter and got the same result, 0.3 ohm for 10 parallel and 1.3 ohm for one single one.
Looks as if #12 has it! --- I was hoping for ca Negative 1Looks like right around 0.2-0.3 ohm with the clips connected to each other.
Yebbut...age also has senior moments. I couldn't remember the treachery part right thenAnd hey, isn't it old age and treachery that beats youth and excitement?
I'll eschew a quip Re: the ostensible 'utility' of such a feature as regards the assay of tunnel diodes and their ilk --- Seriously though, zeroing firmware does have its proclivities... (though I will admit I've not seen a negative resistance indication )Ohm scales are not designed with the capability of showing negative numbers.
