moh.vze.com Posted December 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2012 Just shot these real quick tonight while I was testing 2 of my Level 6 15s free air. acA- 5.45a acV- 38.1v = 207.645w @ 6.99 ohms This was done with the 5k turned up just under half volume. This test was not done to show power output, but to show how to properly clamp an amplifier. Thanks. I will check this out tomorrow.

moh.vze.com Posted December 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 So when I clamp the amp do I want my DC Voltage to be above 12.5V? Someone above was asking if I clipped it during the clamp. Would it affect the results if the DC Voltage drops below 12V?

CJ18 Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 No it won't effect the number, but you still want your electrical to be able to stay above 12v. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moh.vze.com Posted December 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 I've recorded new videos. I'm going to post them here after I've uploaded. Apparently the Pmax function on my clamp meter is indeed not working correctly; as a result, I will be driving to Sears today to exchange it for a different one.

moh.vze.com Posted December 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Can you guys lock this thread please? I've created a new one here: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/158663-dc5k-clamp-test-second-try-with-oscope-hooked-up/ I created a new thread because the results in this video were not accurate due to a faulty function on the clamp meter. A new thread will help keep everything clear and organized. Thanks!
