0-1mA Analog Meter

[thetmagic]

I've already looked for it at several sites to order this 0-1 mA Analog Meter but couldn't find any sites that carry it.
I found other types but not 0 - 1mA, I only found this one: Digi-Key - BK117B-ND (Manufacturer - 117B)
But it is a multimeter and is more complicated, and expensive, if anyone can find one online, that will be great. And what does it even mean that an analog meter is 0-1mA?

Thank You!

search for panel meter. They do not have 1mA but they have 50uA and with the right resistor across the meter it will work.

Old analog meters are hard to find.

What does all of that ("1 pc Panel Meter SD-670" and all of that stuff) mean? Also where are the leads for this meter?
Thank You!!!!

www.mpja.com sells many panel meters. But they're almost the same price as a cheap full function meter. I think most of the ones MPJA sells are 50-200ma full scale though. Those types of meters don't come with leads they have terminals built into them you wire yourself.

I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for but.

is as cheap as you'll find. You'd be hard pressed to find anything 'simpler' than that that's still called a multimeter. If you just want a simple handheld meter that measures a single function you'd have to build it yourself.

He is making that stupid "lie detector" project.

Go lower than 1 mA and shunt it with a resistor, or go higher and use an opamp DC amplifier.

Thank you all, but the ebay one is what I'm looking for.

Yes, I know, it is so stupid that you commented on it like crazy, and even said it was a cool and simple project. I don't mean to be mean, but you are to me, I asked you something nicely before, and you tried to insult me by saying that any little kid could do it and other stuff, and now you are back, how nice of you .

Hiiiiiii.... i need help about d'arsonval multirange ammeter... How to calculate percentage error in each measurement of current if the shunt resistor have 10% limiting error???? the current ranges are 0-10mA
0-50mA
0-100mA
0-1A
0-10A
0-20A
0-50A
0-60A
0-80A
0-100A
the shunt resistor is connected parallel to the meter..the d'arsonval meter have 500 ohms internal resistance and 1mA full-scale deflection current....PLz help me.....Thank you very much...
