With a clear display and an intuitive interface, this meter is perfect for anyone who wants to measure voltage, current, or resistance. Our customers have been impressed with the accuracy and…

Pros
  • Powerful, versatile, and easy to use.
Cons
  • The only disadvantage we have found is that it is slightly more expensive than some of its competitors.

Broke and then broke again

Didn't work right out of the box. Disassembled it and found that one of the battery pins/springs on the board was bent back, fixed that, and then the continuity tone stuck after about 5 days. I am returning to Amazon.

Pros
  • MULTIFUNCTIONAL DESIGN: This compact DMM is a 3-in-1 design with multimeter, non-contact AC voltage tester and work light.
Cons
  • Upgradable

Compact, rugged and you don't have to change the damn ammeter fuse!

This very small multimeter is ideal for general checks. Of course, there's no clamp meter, so you can't measure AC power consumption - you'll need a separate meter for that. The built in flashlight is surprisingly handy as my eyes are aging and more light helps, and the non-contact voltage detector works well too and is fairly sensitive. (It doesn't sound, but the red light is clearly visible. It also has frequency, pulse width, and capacitance measurements, which aren't commonly used, but are…

Pros
  • ROBUST AND RELIABLE: The compact 3-in-1 CAT IV 16020N DMM is designed for continuous use and has passed the 2M drop test.
Cons
  • Very expensive
