I think this came about because Phil asked me to measure something for him; the meter I had to hand was my old Fluke, must be at least 25yrs old and still gong strong and is fine for most scenarios I encounter, but it has no nulling capability. As the resistance I was asked to measure is only a few ohms I wasn't able to be confident of the accuracy of reading; if I touch the probes together it reads over 1ohm.
Mine always shows 0.2, but I merely subtract it from every low resistance mesaurement, seems to work.
"No matter how fast light travels it finds that the darkness has always got there first, and is waiting for it."
I too have an old fluke that could show all manner of things when touching the probes so for measuring low values, I give the probes leads entering the meter a good rotating wiggle and that seems to zero things.
I noticed this cloud formation late yesterday afternoon. The top bit looks like two rampant Lions, well it did to me, but then I had been on the Pernod.
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

Yep! I'll go with that!
Currently enjoying a day that isn't 30°C indoors, for a change! (It was hotter outside!)
