   I don’t want my Brymen to be bouncing around in the car constantly. I thought it may be perfect for having in the car/toolbox?

Thanks

i dont really know why you would need to spend a lot of money for a car multimeter, if tis going to stay on a toolbox and for a car your 15 bucks chinese  dmm  should be good enough

The linked multimeter is $20 and possibly has the same chip as AN8002/AN860B+ (I don't have any way to be sure) but does have the additional buttons that AN860B+ has, but AN8002 does not - but it does have a smaller size instead.

   That was my thinking too. Something cheap for the car, etc.

Thanks

that multimiter you showed on amazon looks pretty ok, if you really want the autoranging, cars usually only unse 12 volts or so on their systems so the 20 v range on the cheap chinese should be enough. i would tell you to go for an even cheaper multimeter. unless you stick it on the high voltage spark plug system it should be more than enough
