Do you have a clamp on ac meter? I’m guessing it’s only equipped with 1 current donut, and is probably only valid amp and power readings for balanced loads. If you want to see what it’s measuring, and you do have a clamp on, turn off all breakers except a 240 volt load like an active electric...

All speculation till you post the schematic, or description of the amp/ watt screen from your owners manual

Problem with that setup, is the amp reading will only be correct for L1 to L2 flow. It’s totally wrong for 120v circuits. Example: 1 amp flows L1 to L2. Meter “sees” 2 amps because of double wires through the donut. 1 amp flows through L1 to N meter only “”sees” 1 amp. So first, the amp...

Did it come with a manual that explains what current path the amp display is actually displaying? Running 2 of the wrong wires through a single current donut can cause an increase in load to incorrectly read as a decrease because of cancellation. Hopefully you don’t have that going on

Watts will be calculated off of measurement volts, and amps. The question is …. How many current donuts does it use? Can you switch the amp display to show each leg individually? You can have leg 1 to neutral current. You can have leg 2 to neutral current. You can have leg 1 to leg 2 current...

Nothing compared to today’s add on restaurant fees, but I still remember my disbelief for getting charged an extra buck for maple syrup to go with my Belgium waffle. She later explained, the common fake syrup would have been free. I remember another place charging 50 cents for pads of butter...

The video has the guy holding 2 different Tutela brand oils, which can be bought anywhere, including Amazon. Not sure what you saw.

Their opinion:

Waitress: Here’s your fillet mignon and baked potato with sour cream , and salad dinner you ordered. The OP: Send it back! That’s not what I wanted. Looks like someone already chewed it up. Tractor by Net peanut gallery: What an entitled, baby the OP was. It’s gonna get combed and mixed...

🤔 Where did you read this? Can you post a link to it , please? The particular elastomer composition would have to be discussed, to start. I’d love to see an actual technical study that compared a gearbox lubricated with good gear oil against a gearbox lubricated with UTTO, where they found the...

I wonder if the nice, friendly posters belittling the OP, calling him a deekhead , entitled, whiny, baby, etc, .. have never returned a product in their lifetime?🤔 Any successful transaction requires a meeting of the minds of both the buyer and seller. It obviously didn’t happen here. The OP...

If the dealer keeps delivering “new” equipment in that condition, I imagine there will be more cases of parting company

Exactly, and how many would honestly admit it?

To each your own, buddy I use it in a big older piece of equipment that gets used occasionally. More than good enough for that. Besides, last I checked, the thread was titled and started by someone in a similar situation, looking for inexpensive ISO 46 .
