Review on πŸ”‹ RC Watt Meter: Accurate Digital Power Analyzer with LCD Display for Battery Voltage and Balance Check, Watt, Volt and Amp Measurement (DC 60V/100A) by Trevor Rodke

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Accurate but peak data is useless

I found the instrument to be accurate but peak data is useless. Peak Watts, Minimum Volts and Peak Amps are cleared and recalculated every 0.4 seconds. They don't show spikes for a long session. They mainly track live data. It's hard to see how this method of recording and presenting peak data can be useful to anyone, and in my opinion this design is a serious flaw. .The device is rated at 150 amps, but I'm guessing that's the peak for a *very* short time. The maximum continuous load is probably closer to 50-75A. The unit I received had 10ga cables and I installed Powerpole 45A connectors. I personally will not push this block past 45A
