    Moonlight mode--any good or just marketing?

    Moonlight mode is the most used on my Quark. Its great for middle of the night and first thing in the morning when eyes are sensitive . Its the best part of my quark for me.

    Simple guide to using a DMM for measurements

    Great job HKJ. I was wondering . On the ZTS battery tester under 3.6v you see listed a number of batteries but not 14500. My aw 14500's are 3.7. Does it matter ?? . Can the 14500's be tested in the 3.6 spot??

    checking battery level with multitester???

    My wf139 doesn't have a way of checking what's left in a battery so i'm wondering is there a way to check that with a multi tester or does it just give you voltage potential. My tester is pretty standard acv , dcv and ohms. Thanks in advance.
