Thank you for the reply gentlemen. I should have mentioned that I did consider the potential impact of meter impedance so I tested with a standard VOM, a VTVM and a Fluke Scopemeter and all three measured within a couple volts, and yes all of these meters are nowhere near 1000 ohms/volt. I'm still torn as to whether I should let it run as-is or use a solution to throttle it back.
