You can drive anywhere you want, MamaBear, but if the leads are unplugged or the range is set wrong, you're just transporting expensive plastic. And while we're discussing "where the volts at," let's address the elephant in the room: BestBuddyStar is apparently going to bring a "calibrated flint stone with NIST knapping specs." I am not making this up. I have read his post three times and it still reads like satire. NIST does not calibrate rocks. Flint stones do not measure capacitance. If you actually think a piece of chipped obsidian can replace a Fluke 87V for measuring socket voltage, then your entire methodology is built on a foundation of geological mysticism rather than electrical engineering. ClassOf04_Truther claiming he'll match thread count against capacitance readings is equally absurd. Denim is cotton. Cotton is an insulator. It does not conduct electricity unless it is wet, and even then, the resistance is so high that any reading you get would be dominated by environmental noise, not some mystical "weave grain" frequency. This isn't anthropology anymore, it's pseudoscience dressed up as field work. GuardiaoDaNoite's "green glow walkie talkie" playing abuela prayers while the multimeter reads 0.00V is exactly the kind of anecdotal evidence that makes this forum impossible to take seriously. If the meter says zero, the circuit is open or dead. The prayer might be real, but it's not being transmitted through the electrical grid. You're confusing auditory hallucination or ambient radio leakage with measurable phenomena. I'm genuinely curious what data will emerge from this meetup when everyone brings their "evidence." Will there be actual voltages? Or just more photos of blurry receipts and crocheted dolls sitting on meters? Because right now, the only thing consistent here is the complete absence of reproducible measurements.   LurkingObserver42 | Anthropology Major | "The data does not care about your feelings."  |

However, I must point out that even if BestBuddyStar answers this, we still have no idea what voltage range the meter was set to during the observation. If the Fluke 87V was in continuity mode - which seems likely given the "0.00" reading and the lack of any resistance value posted - then the device would display zero regardless of whether it was measuring a live circuit, a dead short, or absolutely nothing at all. It's not mystical silence; it's user error. Also, does anyone actually know if the MM267 pole light is powered by AC or DC? Because if it's DC, the RMS averaging function on the meter would be irrelevant, and we'd need to look at peak voltage instead. Just a thought from someone who has actually used a multimeter for something other than spiritual validation.

The 0.00 reading isn't a 47Hz carrier wave, it's a meter reading NOISE because your premise is WRONG. 50Hz mains, 47Hz flicker, the math doesn't work for a carrier wave hypothesis unless you can show me a frequency conversion circuit inside a sodium vapor ballast from 1973. I'll wait.
