I bought that one as my first meter! Misty used it for checking continuity and resistance, which was fine, but ended up getting a new meter that measures in 6,000 increments (instead of 2,000) and includes capacitance meter too. Your other DMM videos helped me choose, so keep this stuff coming!

Ive had this meter for a year. Its worked fine. I like how theres zero delay and loud on continuity test. Thats bettet than your harbor freight freebie meter.

That looks like a rebranded Uni-T. At least it has a fused 10A range, unfused meters are dangerous.

safe for battery or low voltage electronics that’s about it, more of a toy for a kid learning electronics powered by AAA or 9v batteries that’s about it.

Only if they are the ammeters you need to hook up in series. Clamp meters don't need to be fused.

​@@thatengineeringchannel4611 Once as a kid I tried to measure a current of a car battery with a cheapo DMM. Up to this day I don't really know how I survived it :D

that was a really nice lookin scope!!!

"if it's Cheap and It Works I'm Happy..." me too...

For the fourth of July, take five inexpensive multimeters, connected in parallel with a switched 5 kilovolt input and film the destruction when you flip the switch. Will any survive? Have a great weekend Paul.

Hey good morning. I finally got my ham ticket. thanks for the inspiration! now I need a big 12vdc power supply for my amp I dusted off after over 25 years of sitting. the most expensive part would be the transformer and I have a 1400 watt microwave transformer. I was thinking of redoing the secondary. If I calculated correct it should be about 100 amps at 13 volts. Hmmmm. what do you think?

I don't mind a cheap meter like that (the Harbor Freight freebie meter) to keep in the truck or on my computer desk where there will never be AC or high DC voltage. And you're not out much when it blows or goes missing.

I also agree it's a rebranded UNI-T UT33D now replaced by the UT33D+. I have both, Best wishes from Northern Ireland.

That was my first multimeter, ha ha. I still use it as a backup for continuity tests.

you're gods gift dear sir :)

What is the best multimeter from china (aliexpress or orther) in your opinion in price range around 35$?

Yeah not something I would get for my bench but to keep in the car, yeah I could see that. Great video Paul. That virus going around I think a lot of people are panicking because our government has done very poorly at reassuring people. Stay safe man.

But for all it's bad points at least they fitted ceramic fuses, and not the glass one's as some do.

I didn't hear you mention the 9v battery advantage. Any DVM with a 9v battery will perform better when it comes to searching for high impedance faults such as a ground fault. 9v is also better when it comes to checking diodes especially if there are a bunch in series like we have with fire bells and diode matrix.

I meant the 9v battery to power the DVM. So many of them have gone over to a 3v AA cells x2. I find them less effective for high impedance troubleshooting in real life, just because there is not enough supply voltage to drive to the fault.

Good day, I'm looking for a good cheap, functional, cheap, DC clamp meter, cheap, but somewhat accurate. I need to possibly measure 300amps, DC, I have shunts I wire in, but that sux! Oh did I mention cheap! I have enough meters, I just need one that do The DC current! Any ideas?

looks similar to mine uni-t ut33c .

I've been making do with my 25+ year old Bluepoint. I'll probably get one of them UNI-T UT210D clamp meters with capacitance measurement and a thermometer soon.

​@@thatengineeringchannel4611 I can absolutely recommend getting a UT210E clamp meter, it's a great bargain for it's price. And it's easily hackable to a 9.999 range.

It,s rebrending. This is Uni-t UT33 model.

Look better then most $20.00 meters I've purchased. like the fact it has a Output signal too.

Nice video Paul 👍 but unfortunately crappy multimeter 😋 In the meantime after watching all your DMM video's I got addicted too, and l have got more than 10 multimeters now including some very nice analog ones like the Unigor 6E 💪 New problem is where to put or store them 🙄

Pfew!!!! The UNI-T Ut210D and -E are much better whe coming to precision and input protection! Afcourse, they are a bit more expensive, but to put this "Measure UP" meter on a 3-phase system?? OUGH!

I have this meter. The stand lasted about 5 days.

cheap enough though, have two unbrand HRC fuses. and can do its job. whatever...
