Did someone in here ever experienced a voltmeter going wild ? i've been woke up by my own voltmeter screaming like a banshee in bare air not even switched on , electrodes not even crossed ..I've been forced to remove the battery to be able to sleep ^^ , and i don't believe it's a shortcut in the circuitry , first because the voltmeter is completely new , second because while screaming ( this model's not even equippied with any bipper of any sort on top of that ) the screen wasn't even lit , nor the power light indicator ..... This is the friggin weirdest phenomenon i've seen to date , anyone would have a rationnal explanation to suggest ??? And the damn voltmeter screamed so wildly i have a tinnitus since yesterday ( it was close to my bed )

ps ; also just to mention something which could be of interest in this case , the electric lines in my flat are also going crazy , i dunno if it's surtensions , but i fried 3 computer motherboards in 1 year , with regular usage , no overclock , no nothing .... dunno maybe the shitty signal waveforms they now put right into the current lines going into resonnance with something else ?
Don't wanna pay an electrician to figure this out , frying computers like this is beginning to cost me far too much ^^ not to mention the pain in the arsage having a pc dying off in the midle of a programmation projet

I heard there are medications for that.......lol
Man, that IS wild !!

just describing facts in details you know , i mean maybe there's a little "speaker" meant to bip when the voltage is far too high in the device , but it doesn't bip at all when taking normal voltages readings , it's a really simple model of voltmeter , just asking for a possible rationnal physical explanation , after all there are experts in here .... no nutjob claims here , it stopped when i took out the battery , i just wonder how the possible sound device in there ( or something vibrating at high frequency ) went all out screaming without turning on the screen or any other function ( power light etc ) ,it's rare for a shortcut to first let the juice flow to a speaker and shut down other functions , that would mean two cuts happened at the same time ... but indeed it's pretty wild ^^

This is the solution.

well i guess picking up radio signals in not properly shielded nor grounded amps , is also indeed attributable to poltergeists trying to screw up your ego by making you listen to better guitar players on the radio ... it's a well known fact








except there aren't good guitar players on the radio no more .... epic poltergeisted fail
