and you could throw it in the trash without any remorse, and a top end meter that can't take some stress, as Dave sayid before and he is absolutely right, what a waist of money...

I don't think I have ever tested the Harbor Freight meter with the grill starter. Does make you wonder.and you could throw it in the trash without any remorse, and a top end meter that can't take some stress, as Dave sayid before and he is absolutely right, what a waist of money...
I think I will pick another one (HF) up for the pocket meter testing. Cause you know that there is going to be some carnage during that test! Two of the meters are UNI-T. Did you know that you can always download that spreadsheet from the first post rather than hunting through the videos?
yes I know, but it's .xls format, I need to find a plugin or something like that for firefox to open it, most stuff on the net like manuals and other stuff is PDF format so I open it directly in firefox. and about hf meter, is this thing survives the test it would be hilarious, at least if it doesn't, won't be a big loss, I'm kinda curious if you can repair the uni t, it was looking good compared with the fluke, the menus and etc
I have uploaded the last data I collected that included the UT181A. I also converted the data to PDF.

The 181A is given a drink and bullet to bite down on.. The 210E knows from experience that this can't be good!

any survivors? what's next?
when I saw the 181A with the bullet, I tought you would just trash it, I just asked because I tought that you really would targed practice on it
Thanks Joe, this was an excellent effort on your part and it made for a great video, it clearly shows that improvements for reliability can be made to some meters and perhaps some manufacturers who see this may take it on board.
I did like the way you utilised the hold button on the first meter before switching to the second to retain the measured value for comparison, I wish others would do the same thing when comparing meters so we don’t have to remember what the previous meter displayed, this was a nice touch.
To sum up…….
