QDeesHow do you connect the ampere/volt meter to the solar panels? which of the above drawings should I follow?ViewHide 1 answer | Answer this question
AOpencircuitFor solar panels it is best to use the top diagram with a separate power supply.1
QMikeIn addition to the positive, can the meter also indicate a negative current, i.e. the charging and discharging of a battery?ViewHide 1 answer | Answer this question
ARobUnfortunately this does not work. I was also curious about a solar panel + battery project, so I tested it. When the flow direction is reversed, the meter remains at zero.1

QOle MeulenbeltCan the volt/ampere meter handle peaks above 10A?ViewHide 1 answer | Answer this question
ALucas KoppelaarsA short peak yes. But not too long, otherwise it will burn out.11
QLucWhat is the Voltage/current range of the measurement?ViewHide 2 answers | Answer this question
AOpencircuitThis display can measure up to 100V and 10A.11
ASamMy experience with these meters is that with a voltage higher than (approximately) 30 volts the current (amperes) is no longer displayed correctly. For example, measuring the current in a circuit at 50V does not want this. Unfortunately. (I tried five of them who all had this problem. The 100V and 10A designation is therefore somewhat misleading in my opinion.1

Looks nice.Price.Compact.Ammeter not potential free.Connection diagram could have been a bit clearer.
Nice compact DC meter. Connecting takes a bit of care. Because the (thick) black wire of the ampere meter also hangs from the ground of the meter, it cannot simply be hung somewhere in between, as you can do with a potential-free (multi-)meter. And connecting the thin black wire can cause the current to take a different path causing the meter to read 0 even though current is flowing. (This has been on my mind for a while today.)

It's nice that there is a connection diagram on the Opencircuit website. I connected it to the battery on my boat: Works great!

Nice thing, clearance of the PCB in the house could be better, the PCB rattles in the house. Remember not to use anything below 3 VDC. Own power supply must be > 3 VDC otherwise the display will be black. In short, I am very satisfied for the applications for which I use them (model railway).
