    You should do video on extech and how to calibrate one I tried and I think you gotta program the chipset or processor .I turned v resistor and it went reading 300 mv fluctuating back in forth and changes with weather

  2. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Chicken Permission says:

    almost 800 bucks now.

  3. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Joe Barry says:

    no wonder why this meter is so expensive ๐Ÿ™‚

    pcb quality and soldering quality not good compare to the fluke

  5. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Uni-Byte says:

    Good enough for Canada! WTF?

    BD = " Ferrite Bead"

    Just in the begining of the video spoiler: is it anything good? NOOOO!

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Alexander Fefer says:

    Hey Dave, great teardown. Just wanted to point out that the meter does indeed have auto-hold – you need to enable it in the setup menu (hold down the orange button while turning the rotary knob). It's worth looking through the manual, there are a lot more capabilities in this meter than are immediately evident from a glance at the front panel.

  9. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars John Lucier says:

    The problem is that no one will spend that kind of money for this meter when they can get a reliable fluke for the same or lower price. Trouble with these multimeters is that they are not fool proof. It's a pricey multimeter with all its glory it does have its problems..nice to have m I new but I would spend it on quality assurance..

    this is trash compared to digimer 10.

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars elmachooooo says:

    It's got Setup and AutoHold (can be set in SETUP menu)

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Filip Sz says:

    The biggest issue with this bad boy is the range selector… sometimes it can stuck between two positions and the meter is going crazy or turning off by itself.

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hameed Ullah says:

    Hello. Which brand and multimeter is best for everything ( home, electrical work and electrician user)

    A Keysight meter calibrated with two Fluke 5522A multi-product calibrators. Scandalous.

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Some guy on the internet says:

    i see eevblog struggling to criticize this piece of majestic kit :U

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Some guy on the internet says:

    I love looking at these mini metropolises. This circuit is basically Mona Lisa.

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars oluchi mellor says:

    i dont like it๐Ÿ˜ 

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Monchi Abbad says:

    Hmm the cut outs underneath the sparkgaps are rather short, a spark could jump across the board on the edge of the cut out.

  20. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Abdullbasit AlHaita says:

    I'd lick this multimeter anytime

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Rusty Rebar says:

    Some secure sites don't allow wireless communications, hence the detachable bluetooth module!!!!

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Samiran Bairagi says:

    Who is best multimeter brand?

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Random Thing CH says:

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars TokeN LecTronix says:

    Take a look at the $130 field piece LT17A

    BTW I'm a fieldpiece fan boy

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Johnny Motorboat says:

    I'm kinda miffed at the lack of respect for my super awesome multimeter. I can't say enough good about it… although that range switch is yucky.

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Maxi~ says:

    I'd love to see you review some Knight test equipment. I used them in school and liked their multi-meter well enough.
