Im not defending the accuracy of the meter. I don't have a second DC meter to check against and I never thought to squeeze the clamp. But Ill be you are measuring a pulsed current. Maybe from a battery charger? The A/C amp meter will pick up the Pulsed current but Ill bet it does not pick up straight DC. Try it with just a battery, no charger.
yeah dont think i would trust that one
