You can upload the photos to http://imgur.com, then send us the links.
Looking forward to your reply.
Best regards,

I installed it on the positive side of battery bank (300 Ah capacity) which supplies a 2000W DC to AC power inverter. I installed it on the negative side last evening and the meter showed 666 on the display until it faded out within about 1 minute. Thx
Hi clark, if you use a common power supply to power the meter and measured device, the meter was burnt. Usually the shunt need to series connected between negative of the power supply and the load to avoid being burnt when using a common power supply. So we recommend you to a separate, independent, isolated power supply.
Thanks.

With the shunt initially being hooked up between the positive and the load, is the shunt still usable or will I have to buy another shunt? With using a separate power supply to power the meter can I connect the shunt between the positive and the load? Thx

Ik ontdekte onlangs lolospin , een online casino dat spelers uit België speciale bonussen aanbiedt. In het begin verloor ik wat kleine inzetten, maar daarna had ik ineens een flinke winst op een slot zoals Wolf Gold, en dat voelde als een leuke kleine overwinning in een drukke dag. Het is echt een simpele manier om even te ontspannen en toch wat spanning te ervaren zonder al te veel gedoe.
