Greetings.
Getting to the point - is there anything about modern LED grow lights
that could cause inaccurate amperage measurements? I have an elcheapo
Arlec meter, when testing it on other devices, it's readings are
consistent with the devices stated current draw. So I assume the meter
is accurate.
However, these lights claim to have an average current draw of
393Wą3%. My meter says 765W... and I tested two identical model lights
with the same result.
I'm no electronics expert, but IMO either the light's stated specs are
way off, or the light is somehow causing an inaccurate reading.
Thanks for any sensible comments.
