Title: Aneng alarm clock speaker multimeter gains even more functions!
Post by: Fungus on February 20, 2022, 09:46:04 pm

Check out the new version:

It now has bluetooth audio, blouetooth multimeter app, and a button on the probe for voice control.

(at least, I think that's what the button is for)

The original Zoyi version has a nixi-orange display: https://zotektools.com/products/zt-5566s/ (https://zotektools.com/products/zt-5566s/)   :)

It mentions temperature measurement but I don't see how to select it nor the specifications.

You are totally missing the biggest feature. The "di di di" buzzer sound it can do.

On a side note. The temperature probably is referring to an ambient temperature sensor somewhere inside the multimeter I guess. You can see it one the side above the time and next to battery level.

Is the speaker any good on those things? Anybody have the previous one?

I have the previous version AN888S, and the speaker is good although there is some PWM noise from the backlight when the light is dimmed.

'Play music after the beep "Boom"' - whats that, the "Death March" for probing the mains?  :-DD

I would never consider any multimeter without a proper bread-baker function.

By the way, I have the feeling that possibly as an undocumented symptom, the chinese-flu is altering honorable forum-members mind to become something I would call a multimeter-pervert. :)
(The designers mind is obviously way more affected, and I would really like to see the brain storming events which lead to these products. I suppose they would make more money out of the filming rights, than from the products themself.)

If Apple were making multimeters, it would be a snow white sphere with no buttons.

Does it let you set a threshold (or range) upon which reaching limits of said threshold it alerts you audibly? (it should give you lots of parameters as well as log functions to specify.

Sort of like triggers in SQL.

Let me guess... The smartphone BLE app requires access to the camera, contacts, microphone and filesystem.  :-DD

This is starting to remind me of the craze of digital wristwatches of the 1980s, where Casio had watches with every different types of function, colors, games, schedulers, calculators, etc. We used to joke they even showed the time.
