Useless Multimeter for Automotive Diagnostics

After I put it to the test on my car's electrical system, I realized this multimeter was a complete waste of money. The accuracy was questionable, and the readings were all over the place. The only good thing about it was the sturdy build quality. However, it's not worth the price tag for such an unreliable tool.

Pros
  • Sturdy build quality
Cons
  • Inaccurate readings for automotive diagnostics.

Not worth the money

The counter was fine but when I got mine and opened it I immediately checked to see if it worked. I later realized that if I tested something, it read it and gave me what I wanted, but the next time I tried it, it didn't! When I turned the dial to turn it on and off and change the way it measured, it wouldn't read properly and sometimes wouldn't even turn on. very frustrating price to pay for it

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Accurate but not very hard.

This gauge was good and accurate for about 3 months, it didn't last well, I had it for 5 months. I blew a 500mA fuse while making measurements on a low voltage DC circuit. Sure, I walk the mile to college every day with that yard of rain, snow, and glitter. For $100 it should hold up better. Temperature readings are extremely important to what I do and even a brand new one just wasn't accurate, now it's stuck at 64 degrees no matter what. The fuses are overpriced and really hard to find, maybe…

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • Exchange possible
