      Answer This Question

      The auto shut off cannot be disabled on the R8050. To preserve battery life, the meter is programmed to turn itself off after 15 minutes of inactivity.

          Answer This Question

          The distance wasn't specifically measured but the decibel measuring range is from 30-130 dB.

          By|Feb 13, 2020

            Measurements should be taken anywhere from 3-10 feet (1 to 3 meters) from source (not directly at the source), however, a distance of 3 feet (1 m) is commonly used.

                Very unreliable and inaccurate
                Had to return it. The “over” light flickers even when the sound is not loud and clearly not overloading the meter. Switching from dBA to dBC and the reading drops 20 dB. The dBC reading should be the same if not higher than the dBA reading, but never less.
