I bought a cheap multimeter at pepboys and measured amps powering my CTC15 up.. Meter keeps reading between 0.00 and 0.02 and no change as set is powering up and tubes warm up.. Doesn't make any since to me.. I must be doing this wrong.. got probe connected to 10amp, and the other to the Com of meter and meter set to 10amp..
the 100 watt bulb lit full brightness and went down slightly, with nothing coming up on the TV set..
the 200 watt bulb lit full and goes down dim as the tubes come up.
That's the pattern the amp meter should be reading but when I power my CTC15 up, it's giving me numbers that don't make since..
Here's what the settings I have on the multimeter..
