[sdiy] measuring dc current max/draw of psu with a scope or multimeter??

[Dan Snazelle]

im trying to figure out if this is possible witn regular tools

i know i could buy a dc ammeter but those are expensive

ive also read about current probes but some of these seem to saturate at 500ma dc

so

i figured there must be a way to test current with a resistor and voltage


any ideas??


thnx
