    Upgrade to the $20 cheapie from Dicks or Jaycar.... You want better (read "SAFE") leads & probes if there's any mains power nearby....

    - We'd like you alive and well and on this forum for a while longer!

    Definitely looks like a thermal circuit breaker. That's an Over-Current Protection Thingy that takes time to get hot & bothered...sulks a bit, then Opens. When it cools down it re-sets itself.

    - As opposed to a wire fuse that instantly blows at a pre-determined current ("Amps") and needs to be replaced with a new one.

    Google Types of fuses for some easy reading.

    Thanks Guys!

    I'll give it a bit more time & $ and, as I have bigger fish to fry, if not successful I'll put back on the ornament shelf with the old Castrol signs, oil tins etc

    meters witrh a linear motor don't know if it is rectified AC or DC they are measuring it is just a matter of a calibration factor.

    Before going into the 1/square root (2) calibration factor I agree with the others and go out and get a cheap meter.
