I have owned many multimeters over my lifetime and still have a couple but they are both the dial type. While they work, I love the ease of reading with this one. The digital display is much easier on my eyes! As soon as it arrived I tested the voltage, current and resistance features. I used a AA battery and everything read exactly as it should have! I appreciate that this multimeter comes with a nine volt battery and two sets of cables! That is a feature I have not seen with any other company and I am very impressed. The cables are always the first thing to wear out, besides the battery and having an extra set included is great! I have been known, to accidentally close them into car doors when I am installing electronics in a vehicle and it is great to know that I have an extra set.
According to the instruction manual the specs are as follows:
DC Voltage: 200mV/2V/20V/200V/500V ±0.8%
AC Voltage: 200mV/2/20/200/500V ±(0.5%+5)
DC Current: 2mA/20mA/200mA/10A ±1.4%
Resistance: 200/2k/20k/200k/2M ±0.8%
Two extra features that I am really glad it has is a hold button and a light button. When I am in a hard to reach area, it is much easier to hit the hold button until I get up to read the meter than to try to turn my head and get into position to read it. Also the backlight is a wonderful feature especially when working with cars, as something usually goes wrong at night.
Overall this is my favorite multimeter and the only one I will be using. I recommend this multimeter as it is high quality at a great price!
I received the multimeter at a free or discounted price in exchange for an honest review.
