So, instead of narrowing down all of the different types of amperage guages and their varied uses and assigning a name for them based on common usage it's better to just describe the intended use.....right? You are of course correct in saying that they all measure current flow just as I am correct in saying that all firearms 'shoot'.

It may not be 'correct' by anothers' point of view but it is a true representation of the common usage of the terms in my time and in my part of the world. :-)
