....Just wondering though, what would you use to ACCURATELY calibrate it??
I have 2 BIRD 43s and a 4304A.
2xBIRD 43s & 1-4304A.JPG
All give me a reading of +/- 400W into a 600W BIRD Dummy load
when the Elenos says 460W :whistle

So my guess is the Elenos is off :smoke

It's a 22pin which means the Led Backlight is connected differently :cry:
So modifications required to isolate it from the Display Circuit :P
