Actually you would need something plugged into it to test the amperage draw. And just a thought, it might be pretty easy to get a small switch to replace the bankers clip. You could also cut the lip of a bay cover and glue that to the back just for a better aesthetic appeal. Over all I would have to say this is a pretty great idea and I'm definitely going to build something simular. Thanks for the Instuctable.
