Dale, I don't follow you. The settings on the meter for DCV are 2.5, 10, 50, and 250. Does this correspond to upper voltage readings for that setting?
Stan, I set the dial to 10 and measured the adaptor output - on the scale you circled the needle stopped about 8.5 volts. If that's the right line to read the voltage and its accurate, then the adaptors from Menards are indeed putting out more voltage then they specify - which may be the reason peoples buildings are frying (buildings need only 4.5 volts). Note, reading the scale beneath the one you circled reads 4.5 volts with dial at 10. When I set the dial to 50 and read the scale above the one you circled I get just under 5 volts.
Why is the meter ambiguous on which line of numbers to read as compared to dial setting?
Thanks everyone, still would like to know what I am doing.
