Play I like all your videos they're very informative and I just hope you keep putting them out I am I am now thinking about getting a Harbor Freight solar panel to get things going but I don't have the budget for it as yet thank you and keep doing your videos
I was wishing you would show how to check Amperage with this multimeter.. especially from a Solar Panel. I probably got burned buying my 6 used panels (bought a couple here and there, not all at once), now i need to check amperage on em. I may have done it right and see that the 4 i had handy pushed no amps 😐 Tip.. With this multimeter.. when checking volts, turn the switch to a higher setting than your source battery, etc.
Do you have to change or adjust the settings somehow based on if its a parralel battery bank circuit compared to just a single battery? And is there a way to measure total amp hours using these devices?
Thank you for doing a video on Multimeters for solar applications! They can be overwhelming and you did a good job of explaining!
Thank you for your comment.
Thought you were doing solar panels here. The video you did was informative though.
Nice video. Thank yo you so much. What if I want to measure the ampere?

I understand what it is like to be on a budget. Keep an eye out for Harbor Freight coupons - they can save you money.
Thanks for your comment.
what do you set the dial on to test a solar panel, that was a battery test
Was hoping you were doing the panels.
Maybe next time
Thanks for your comment.
This may be a stupid question but wouldn’t 12.8 be full? What is the full voltage on a 12.8?
Yes, 12.8 or 12.9 is considered fully charged. Thanks for your comment.
Thanks for the video how do you check for a bad battery ?
If the battery does not keep a charge it is bad. Thanks for your comment.

I will add that to my video list. Thanks for the tip and the comment.
Is a harbor freight multi meter worth buying or is there another lower cost option that would be better for all solar components
This is the best at the lowest cost I could find. Thanks for your comment.
Hi I was wandering how are your flypower batteries are going? I am thinking of purchasing one..
The batteries are running fine. I would recommend them. Thanks for your comment
What about checking the voltage or current of a solar cell in real time?
Thanks for the tip and the comment.

Adjust the setting as if it was one battery and it will charge the whole bank. Thanks for your comment
where was the solar test
I was testing the battery. Thanks for your comment.
