How quickly does this meter stabilize on a reading? 10uf, 1000uf ?

I am a retired electronics engineer and fiddle on a farm I check from small pc caps to motor start and run caps and it is almost faster then when I get it hooked up and move to see the met6er it is stable I would say fast .

I do service work on ac equipment and use this to check run caps. the reading in almost instant on these types of capacitors.

It reads fairly quick. I'd say 3 seconds or so. Yes you can move it to another piece. You'll see a little satellite icon flash on the read out , indicating that its transmitting temp.

60, It stays there very steady, +/- .2 as measured by my APC UPS. But the Xantrex "kilowatts" display is another matter, it stays at 0 until the real value reaches near 100, at least on my unit, maybe you'll have better luck. Trips around 900W not the 1000 expected, but that could have been the same 100 short that was reported on it's display, I didn't get an accurate measure when it tripped. I have been running the big house refrigerator on it for about 4 months without any problems.

Mine seems to give accurate readings...instruction sheet in box is fairly clear and easy to follow, even for an old timer like me.

It shows current weight for about 10 seconds after use. Have not seen any indication of prior readings but then I have not really investigated that.

it has a tollerance of + or - 3% on 100' so if you have a wire that reads 100' it could be 103 or 97' also it is important to have the meter in the same temp. as the wire for 10-15 min. before taking the measurment.as temp effects resistance

I have not had any issues, but the DW(Distilled Water) I use reads in the 0 to 9S range- which would show 0 on the mS range.

No. I have not found this meter to be very accurate. The Accutrend Plus seems to be more accurate.

I'm pretty sure we read 20 sec somewhere. Ours goes off about the same time too.

I did not do any specific testing for this, but my perception is that the temp adjusts and stabilizes fairly quickly. Never felt any kind of dissatisfaction with regards to this. Been using this hygro-thermometer for sausage fermentation and dry curing and am very satisfied with its performance. Based on my observations, when the sensor is in the curing chamber and the fridge starts to cycle (cooling), the temperature on the display starts falling within seconds. So, yes, fairly quick and been very reliable so far.

It's an instant read thermometer that works for anything as long as you don't put it in and leave it. This one takes about 4 - 6 seconds for a fairly accurate reading. The readout housing is plastic so don't leave it in the pan or in the oven. Take your reading and remove it.

Yes. I just tried moving the meter back and forth across some reflective tape about 3" away and it gave me readings in the 40 to 60 rpm range which was about right.

As long as it reads 300 to 400 outside it gives me confidence that it is fairly accurate. And it Alway has stayed in that margin outside. In a dark room you can see the infa red pulse every few seconds and seam to adjust corispodingly. Hope that helps.

Starting from 7.0 (neutral) to around 10.0 takes about 15 seconds to respond and settle on a reading!

I've had an issue with this also since the meter doesn't stop to take the reading. I place my hands on the handles and stop pedaling. the first reading is always high, and after about 30 seconds or so starts to go down. I usually go by the second or third number down. I think that's about as close as you can get -- just make sure you stop pedaling when you take the reading.

NO, it doesn't have that capability, but it is quite accurate. I haven't set mine in several months, and it's now about a minute fast.

Mine is almost instant unless measuring something shiny. I found mine does not work as well on shiny surfaces
