I've got a question, or two. I know... You're all thinking "Oh, no." I really would like to put an ammeter, and voltmeter, on my controller box. I read about the blue chinese ones, which is what i was planning on using, before I even read this thread. Seems, they don't give accurate readings. I read all about why, a few pages back, but its still like reading Greek, to me. I'm not the most electrically inclined person, but have been learning. Seems the problem lies with the meters, themselves, and what they are calibrated to read. So, would these be acceptable to use?

I figure, by using the analog meters, you wouldn't have the same problem as the digital ones. I was also thinking the problem may lie with the controller. From what I've read, most use the ssr set-up, where you have to buy fifty different pieces. I preferred the all-inclusiveness of Jimbo's scr controller set-up. I haven't been able to find much on it, but have the ssr people had the same problem, with the digital meters, as Jimbo did?
