(automatically monitored)

Supported are 0.7 to 6.0 ohms

Standby current

~0.5 milliampere (standby or after 2 seconds without operation)

Hot start

2 levels

Display

three-digit 7-segment LED-Display

Control

Silent button with gold contacts for long lifetime

Key illumination

(automatic conversion when changing the control mode)

Alarm threshold for low battery 
power

2.9 - 3.6 volt in 0.1 volt steps

Cut-off threshold for low bat-
tery power

2.8 - 3.5 volt in 0.1 volt steps (Please note the battery manufacturers cut-off 
voltage!)

Resistance measurement

Integrated resistance measurement in 0.1 ohms (rounded!)

Voltage measurement

Idle and with current load in 0.1 volt steps

Degree of efficiency

Depending on the load between 86% and 95%
