ANENG goes crazy with new meters

Be sure to report back on diode test voltage (would it kill them to put that number in the info??) and how loud the beeper is. :)

It's unlikely that a meter power by 2 cells will forward bias a white LED.
The exception is the Fluke 18B+ which has a dedicated LED test range which outputs auto polarity 12V.

Why? Many DMM chips has a build in capacitive boost converter.
xavier60:
How they power the back light LEDs, didn't occur to me. Maybe some sort of capacitive boost converter.
I have just checked my AN8008 with a fresh pair of alkaline cells.
Oddly it outputs slightly more voltage on the Diode test range, 3.2V, than what I measure at the battery, 3.18V.
And it does light a white power LED at "2.451V".
It might even work with the NiMh cells when they arrrive.
