Still doesn't add up, but it's closer...
√(8.5²+7²)≈11v
Having received the same readings with my old Radio Shack meter, I will be returning the Fluke; unless someone can convince me otherwise...
I still want to know where your "12V and 14V" RMS readings come from. After all, you are measuring 16V (not 14V)
12v and 14v taken from an older post...

I see I even participated in that dialog. But being over 3 years old I have no re-collection of it.

Anyway, in reviewing that thread my take-away is this is a topic with too many pitfalls, trap-doors, and slippery-slopes.

The smoke unit has two and only two power levels - half-power and full-power (boost). End-of-story (in my opinion).
