Nice work. Aren´t those little (Chinese) meters great. It would have cost a small fortune to to the same metering a few years ago.

Yes they are but the bottom two have a strange problem were it displays the wrong voltage, but you are right very cheap, I think I paid about £12 each for them
No, it is not a line array it is some well stacked boxes...............

I had a spare hanging around and I decided I wanted all of the racks the same size as it makes packing the van/trailer easier

I have a Rack to build for an Install this Week. NOT a Task I like at all. I wish, there was someone else, to do it.

Yes, one I bought also had that. Have a look at the board - there should be a couple of adjustable pots in there. One controls the voltage reading, the other the amperage. Adjust to suit!  Smile

Calibration - for those places where the volts and amps are a little different to regular volts and ampsWink

It's so when the load increases & the voltage drops you can just tweak it back up to 240v, yeah?

Ok, maybe I didn´t put that clearly enough - and obviously humour isn´t your thing...  Smile

These are cheap units, obviously shunted out the factory by the hundreds without too much QC, so the calibration might be a bit off when they arrive. A simple matter to check against a (proper) multimeter and adjust so that they give an accurate reading. Once set, they seem to hold ok - I haven´t noticed any drift or strange behaviour from those I´ve got here.
