Slightly OT - Ammeter Repair

Apart from contacting crypton to seek a replacement, perhaps it is to old for that. Do you need the old one fixing to keep the appearance or are you happy with another to get it working?

If so what size is the meter, how many amps does it show full scale, is it round or square etc.

I have the old meter around but depends on size etc.

Cheers

Contacted Crypton last september, they quoted =A3265+Vat and carriage. A little rich for my blood, much as I like the charger. I'd prefer to keep the original meter (I like to keep some of my kit looking "right"). I can't remember what it reads off the top of me head, but I'll check next time I'm in the shed. I do remember that it's square and that the suppliers I've asked (over the net) have replied "Blimey, we don't stock them that big anymore..."

I'm still waiting for Cryptons repair service to get back to me...

Cheers, Scruff.
