I think the lowest range is 32.00 mA, 320.0 mA. I've seen conflicting data. Screw it....

I saw in the troubleshooting section that there is a chip that controls the auto-ranging function. Maybe it's fixable. After seeing the price of a new meter, I'll just keep swapping them around. Fluke won't touch it as old as it is. Being that everything else works, it may be easier to...

One of my Flukes has a blown fuse for the current side and I just went and looked at Mouser..... $60 bucks my ass but I don't prefer to run a Cina Fuse from amazon unless somebody here has a source or??? F44 100A 1 KV and F11A 1KVA I need a pair of each so I don't get caught unprepared...

Looks like you have a pile of projects on the shelf, quit yappin and get to work............. :)

If you are fully WOPL'd, thats unneeded

Ebay has a bunch of 1000 watt amps for 6 bucks and the size of a ciggy butt pack..... They are way smarter than me.

NOW were getting somewhere.... I was just going to yank the dryer cord and send it to you.

Damn, I'm not that good

Gotta see if pulling air OUT, or pushing it IN works the best. I have a mini sensor which transmits to the base station the temp n shit..... so I could monitor and have an alarm go on.

I forgot to add the cost of the rest of the parts, which is total of $250. At least that's what I tell the Money Manager (wife). But, if you factor in what a good load bank is, that's friggin cheap. My Navy Math is working great.

I should have shopped around for the switches. I paid Mouser double what they are going for on other sites like Grainger/Zoro etc....

Now yer talkin Jim. But when the uglies come marching into your shop and you cant find your ring to make you disappear, run like hell brother............ Your heat sinks are going to be bigger than my Load Bank heat sinks which are 12" x 18"

I had some input from a NASA tech (he got fired for being High), but it is loosely based on the info from Lee's schematic in the other thread. I got my 250watt 8 Ohm resistors and a couple DPDT Carling Illuminated resistors. When switched to the left, the illumination at the tip of the switch...

I'll start a new thread in the DIY Test forum. I am starting to build the new and improved Load Bank. Since everybody want's to cobble some shit, I'm jumping on the cobbled bandwagon, hopefully the suspension won't collapse with all the bullshit flying around. Wait till you see MY specs.

Should look pertty goofy with heat sinks big as my couch trying to keep it cool. I'll see you at the amp reveal, Maybe we can get that black dude to punch the MC for a little press...........

You gonna share that Ganja yer smokin Jim??? On paper it may sound good. I can see why he wants this challenge instead of a real amp.

Yeah, a 10ga inductor MAY be able to handle 30 amps but nothing else in there will. I'll have Lucy 'splain it to me.

The only thing that will handle the 30m amps is the cloths dryer cord it plugs in to the wall with. That's a story for Esops Fables (Or Bob Carvers adventures in gadgets book).

we need an independant lab to prove it is putting out 30 amps. Don't believe everything you read or hear, even IF you want to believe.

Well, he can design anything. His chip amp aint putting out 30 amps.
