Turnigy 130A Watt Meter, WILL IT GIVE AN AH RATING??

[mastershake916]

I'm thinking of purchasing the "Turnigy 130A Watt Meter and Power Analyzer": http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/store/uh_viewItem.asp?idProduct=10080
But am wondering if it has a function to measure battery capacity.
Thanks for the help.

Short answer.... YES

I'm using something similar to this on my sailboat solar power project (it's a clone of this). As far as I can tell it reads Ah only, and won't do Wh, which is kind of a bummer. But it if that's all you need it should work out well for you.

Mine does Wh, well it did when it worked. It has a display in the top left that cycles from Watts peak, Volts min, Amp hours, and Watt hours. Or something like that. I'm 90% sure it shows watt hours.

Thanks for the quick replies. I'm looking to use it to test the capacity of used batteries.

I'm using one of these on my bike and it does measure Wh (and Ah). I used it to capacity check my batteries before using them on the bike.

Voltage might not be accurate but AH should be.

Voltage might not be accurate but AH should be.

Voltage is bob on on mine - even at 63v (only rated to 60v).
