First the AMP meter:
I believe one of my amp meters is just plain bad (displays nonsense). I plugged in another and it displays numbers but jumps around quite a bit between 7 & 5. Although at times it has a crazy number like -54 so somethings not quite right there. Even 7 amps seems like alot of draw with just some lights no?
Second the Volt meter:
The Volt meter, when it was working, was jumping around 240 volts then it went blank and hasn't returned. The transformer hooked up to it was really, really hot while the AMP meter's transformer stayed nice and cool
Both transformers were wired to the same neutral/hot/ground so I guess the one was faulty and maybe it had something to do with the volt meter dieing.
