I don't recall if I tried it in both directions. I believe I did, but I will try it again when I have time, probably not until Friday evening.

When you say 'try to go to less than zero' I'm assuming you are talking about an analog multimeter? I know your feelings on digital ones but if using a digital shouldn't it register negative then? I do have both an analog and digital one.

Thanks for the help.
