Just a quick question about a reading on the amp meter ,i have just finished this project with the volt & amp meters ,i also installed a blue chip led from evans designs over each volt & amp meter ,the question i have is i was running my lionel lionmaster challenger & it was drawing maybe around 1/2 to 1 amp according to the meter & when i put the smoke on it jumped to 3 amps & after maybe 15 seconds it dropped back down to the 1/2 to 1 amp range ,for my own information is this normal ? ,i am not concerned about it i just want to know if this is normal ,as i have never had meters before .
