I am the one? You are such a blow hard. Have you actually hooked a digital volt meter on a bike, to see it drop when applying brake lights? I have my doubts at speed. Some people used to like analog meters because it will catch deflection. But I have not seen one in many years other than meggars, and I think those have gone digital.
Problem with electrical threads is guys like to sound smart. Your area of electrical is piddly little ****. And you accuse me of dragging the thread out.
I think the plug in meter could be an interesting tool, you won't know how accurate it is until you plug in and compare to meter. I suspect way over thinking the draw from the connections. This aint some time little electrical filter you are monitoring with an oscilloscope. its not like it is a lot of money, and you can have more than one tool in your tool box.
I personally would be very careful about riding a bike that I thought might be spiking. You could damage electrical components. which is why I keep asking if bulbs are burning out, that can be a sign.
