I don't recall for sure the models but we tried a couple of different meters. I think one was a Fluke. While it was measuring you could see that it was trying to "lock onto" the signal somehow (showed moving bars constantly) and it wasn't doing a good job averaging the voltage I suspect. Could be that we didn't have all the right modes selected as it seemed like "average voltage" should be possible somehow.
