[QUOTE="i2ain2thunder, post: 8117732, member: 631331"] set to dc voltage, put red pin on + terminal and black pin on - terminal. It's pretty simple stuff when you get used to it. Just use whatever setting is closest to your estimated voltage. IE if there are 4 settings for DC Volts In this hobby electrical supply is probably the best way to keep your equipment safe. Amps need power, you have to supply it, or else there will be problems. That means extra batteries, big wire, high output alternators, and good solid ground connections, and a DMM to check your levels if there are ever problems, so at least you know what to look into fixing. I could have all the batteries alts and big wire in the world, but if I got some corrosion on a ground or am using small wire for the ground my electrical is going to be limited to that. [/QUOTE]
