Title: Cheapo DC clampmeter? Post by: bigtoy on November 26, 2011, 08:41:15 20:41 Does anyone know a source for an el-cheapo DC clampmeter? Note that critical 2 letters: DC. There are plenty of cheap clamp multimeters on eBay but they all seem to be AC current only for the clampmeter part. A DC current clampmeter requires a hall-effect sensor in it, and I haven't yet found a cheapie that contains one.
