The old Current12 and Current25 Bricklets are out of stock for a while now, we finally have a replacement available: The Voltage/Current Bricklet.

The new Voltage/Current Bricklet can measure currents of up to 20A und additionally voltages of up to 36V. Thus it is also possible to determine the power (up to 720W). Beside all of the use cases of the old Current Bricklets, the new Voltage/Current Bricklet can also be used to control a battery charge/discharge circuit.

But the highlight is still to come: The measurements are done with a resolution of 1mA, 1mV and 1mW. We were very surprised about the precision that is reachable after our calibration process:

We were able to reach absolutely identical results as compared to a high end multimeter.
