Let’s say “what’s up” to the Watt’s Up Meter! The Watt’s Up is an all-in-one digital DC ammeter and watt, watt-hour and amp-hour meter. Watt’s Up measures current, voltage and time — and from those measurements calculates peak current, peak power, minimum voltage, power, energy and charge values for you, in real time, for the circuit in which you connect it.

The Watt’s Up is perfect for situations when you need to prevent peak currents damaging a battery, operating motors balancing battery cells, setting cutoff voltages and more. Each Watt’s Up has been equipped with two sets of wires marked “SOURCE” and “LOAD” as well as a 16x2 black-on-green sharp LCD screen.
