What do a shunt do , anyway ?
I was looking at a meter and it said shunt required , Why ?
Forum Discussion
the meter it self won't stand up to the 'amps' being pulled
can't carry amps thru the meter
the shunt mounts at the battery and your charger and load wires connect to the shunt
the shunt is a Heavy and calibrated resistor, usually 75 ohm
the load amps passes thru the shunt, the meter measures the voltage drop across the shunt, to give you the reading of the power amps being used
