RE: Voltmeter Question
ok, Im having a hard time wrapping my head around this one.... I went to the battery clinic page about the loaded digital voltmeter, and the idea looked great. Im all set to build one, when it suddenly occours to me.... how is the Voltwatch NOT performing this function already?
I have heard people say that the Voltwatch cant give you a good read of your battery under load... but if its performing the function of a voltmeter, and measuring when the servos are active, isnt that under load? How is loading the battery with a resistor or a lightbulb different than having the radio powered up. In fact, Id kind of think that it would be better, since it would be the exact load of your current radio setup....
so, am I brilliant or am I totally missing something here? [8D]
