Turnigy cut off at .101 amps

I have a Turnigy in line with a watts up meter. When the current drops below an indicated .101 on the turnigy and a .10 on the watts up, the turnigy just stops recording or indicating anything based on amps. Amps indicated drop to .000, watt hours and amp hours stop accumulating. The watts up continues smoothly at .10 on down.

Looks to be intentionally programmed behavior?

    2^16 makes sense.
    The low end measurement - likely on purpose to prevent everyone from asking "Why does my meter show a reading when nothing is connected?".

    It also seems to have a ceiling at 2^16 /1000 amp hours. E.G. 65.535 and it stops counting up. It is a great tool (especially for higher amperage tests and for cost) but it does not replace my watts up.
