[AT] One more dumb question...

[Stuart Harner]

These are often referred to as "Hobbs" meters.  Although, Hobbs is the name of
one of the manufacturers of these meters.  Kind of like a crescent wrench or
thermos bottle.

I have heard the term "proof" meter, as well as "hour" meter.

Sometimes the reading is referred to as "tach time".
