I have one that i bought @ harbor freight for $3 :lol:

Had to buy another one when i fried it, so all in all ive spent a whole $6 on multimeters my entire life . . . wait, the first one wasnt even mine!

I have 2.

One that i use and one cheap one that has gone ku ku.

The one i use was $50 (Basic stuff,Temperature,Freqency,Capacitence)
The cheap one was about $5 (V,A,Ohm,hFE)

I like the auto thurn off after 10 minutes.I sometimes forget to thurn it off and that drains my batery.

I shod make an wallwart conector on it so i cod run it from an wall wart wen its on the table (wich most of the time is)

do those work?

ive had bad products from them and everyone says their tools are crap

i ordered a autodark welding helmet from them and they didnt tell me it was on backorder (this is common for HF).

i ended up waiting 2 monthis for that welding helmet

What kind of auto darking helmet did you get.

bryan1 · Aug 10, 2005

Well I have 3 of them
1. Fluke 865 for electronic work

2. Automotive multimeter for car and rough work

3. $10 cheapy for all my solar work

yea and silly me used the fluke on solar work and blew both fuses :shock: Now it's going to cost me about $40 to replace them

cheers Bryan
