I'd use something like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0006Q4I60/?tag=atomicindus08-20

My hot tub is on a 50-amp GFCI breaker. Maybe a local dealer could point you in a direction.

Is that an affiliate link? With a DVM you'll want to check for voltage, not current. A $10 incandescent test light is the best tool to use, since it'll show that there's enough voltage and current to (you know) actually light a bulb.

Yep - you're right. Looks like their only purpose is not poking holes in the carry bag or keeping the "needle tip" sharp.

I'm not sure if it's true, but I've heard the probes are considered CAT-IV with the caps, CAT-II without.

We did this last year. I didn't pull permits or use licensed contractors, so I don't know if what I did was right, but here is my experience. We didn't tie into the existing foundation. My house is ~30 years old, so most of the settling has already occured. I know the the new slab is going...

Here's a picture of a Ryan lawn mower bag. If you look at the bottom it says "Product Group of Outboard Marine Corporation" As far as fuel/oil mixture, 40:1 with modern oil will be fine.

It's been years since I've seen one. As I recall, they were a 2nd brand for Lawn-Boy.

Uni-T UT-61E connected to a laptop would do it, although you may need to power the meter from an external source.

Ratchets, door hinges, Glocks, just about everthing.

I like the Uni-T UT210E for home game use. All the current measurement is done through the clamp, so there's no way to hook the probes up wrong. It's a lot of meter for the money.

This problem is the textbook use for a Power Probe. As long as the motor is unplugged from the vehicle, there's no way to cause damage.

It costs more than my current car.

A couple other things I like about the power probe that I like (I have the PP2, not 3): 1) It has a built in circuit breaker, in case you get a little too agressive with the thumb switch and hit the wrong thing or accidently short the probe tip on something. 2) It can act like a logic probe...

Not to be a smart-alec, but did you try putting the numbers on the side of the relay into google...
