Description of Portable digital multimeter with sound continuity and thermocouple (electric tester) LTX DT-838

Here is a practical and easy-to-use multimeter LTX-838. The presented device is designed for both domestic and professional use, which makes it a universal device. It is used to measure DC and AC voltage, current, resistance, gain of transistor devices, continuity of connections, as well as to test diodes. Moreover, the presented model is able to measure the temperature. The multimeter has a low basic error, which can be as low as 0.5%. The extended package of the device includes a 9 V battery, probes, as well as a proprietary temperature sensor. The bonus of the device is its protection from moisture and the ingress of solid elements into the case (IP21). The maximum operating voltage of the device is 500 V.

Total disappointment, the product is terrible.

Repeatedly encountered in the work with a multimeter of this model, therefore, when unpacking, the excessive lightness of the device immediately caught my eye. When checking this device turned out to be more of a dummy. Sound continuity and even digital reflection of short circuit do not work. The temperature sensor, including the thermocouple, does not function. There is not even a fixing screw on the battery cover. When measuring the battery voltage, the error was more than the declared 5%…

Pros
  • Ease of ordering and fast delivery.
Cons
  • Marriage from the supplier.

I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

An error of one hundredth, I don’t know who to believe, but the old man has never let me down. I tried the thermometer, but the result is zero. Maybe I missed something, but I haven't had time to check yet.

Pros
  • Haven't found yet
Cons
  • Sound dialer works every other time

Absolutely useless product, not suitable for use.

Probably I was not lucky with the device, because. I read other reviews, many with this device everything is fine. In my case, when checking the voltage of the home network (220V, alternating voltage), caused a short circuit, although the probes were installed in their places correctly, the switch was 750 ACV. The differential automatic worked, and the fuse in the multimeter did not work

Pros
  • Probably yes, but not in my case.
Cons
  • The device came faulty, when checking the voltage of the home network (220V, alternating voltage), it caused a short circuit.

The purchase brought only positive emotions.

If there were probes a little bit better in general, a universal product . Very handy pocket multimeter (quite realistically lies in almost any pocket). Probes that would not buy (half the cost of this tester) You can say "upgrade" yourself. As soon as it breaks on the soldering of the wires from the contact probe with a lighter or hair dryer, we pull out its contact part, after which we solder the copper sting and fix it in the handle (with the same hair dryer or lighter, or hot glue). With a…

Pros
  • It should be noted that they have been working for more than 5 years each Price up to 350. quite tolerable for such a device. Holds 380 volts! 10A too!
Cons
  • Cheap Probes (they break quickly, inside the soldered wire spins and crumbles) may be different batches from different suppliers (offal may also be different). From 5pcs. There were only 1 purchased multimeters of this series with marriage (the speaker does not work with diode continuity). otherwise everything is fine (measurements do everything about the same - the errors are permissible)

I do not know who scolds this device. I had about the same model, only the manufacturer is different. He ran out of battery and broke one probe. Began to look. a set of probes - 250. Well, let's say a crown of 100. And here for 380 a new device. What questions? For home, for family. At the battery, check the voltage, ring the circuit, sockets, etc. After the purchase, I checked the constant voltage, resistance, dialer, the voltage in the outlet and the thermocouple (although nafig it didn’t…

Pros
  • Cheap and everything works
Cons
  • No
