>imho a Hall current sensor+amplifier for DC use will span the audio band >if its amplifier is modified a little. Its output should be proportional I would agree with this. You are rapidly finding that measuring the current with a resistor is a cheap way to do it, but the electronics that follows is not cheap or easy. A commercial clamp on hall effect probe will soon become a LOT cheaper and easier. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The list server can filter out subtopics (like ads or off topics) for you.
