Why do you need to step that up instead of just using the 0-100mv input
(labeled "shunt") on the packetflux sitemonitor. Not sure I'm following
you.

I want to monitor and graph current on a 120V AC line. Not DC current.
Use a bridge regulator on the shunt. Then meter the output of the
bridge.

That was supposed to be bridge rectifier

Almost exactly what I am looking at doing now. Have PacketFlux 10 amp
shunt on order. Will feed that into isolation transformer then with
diode, capacitor and resisters convert that to a DC voltage. Am
hoping with resi
What about using a Hall Effect current clamp?

Thought about that pretty hard. Actually ordered in some big cheap
cheap torrids to go around the AC line. Never got time to try it
though.
