Title: Eevblog -Bryman DMM question
Post by: Russ on November 18, 2017, 01:29:14 am
Hello

   I just received my EEVBLOG-Bryman DMM. Looks to be a nice unit. However, what is that little magnetic string holder for, how does it work?

Thanks

It slides into the back of the blue holster to act as a hanger or mag-mount.   If you can't work it out, I can post a couple photos to help.

   I figured it out. I was overthinking it 😬. Not the snuggest Of fits. It does not fall out?

Thanks

Russ,

See photo for how I attached mine.   The raised tab on the holster retains the underside of the hanger once it is pushed in.

    Thank you. I figured it out. I was overthinking it. Is it a snug enough fit to prevent it from falling out? How do you like the Meter? I just received mine.

It seems snug enough to me.  I tend not to use the hanger all that much, but it seems fine when I do. The magnetic mount works fine stuck to a vertical surface like a filing cabinet.

Main reason for buying was to support Dave, but it is also a really nice meter to use.   I am hoping to buy it's big brother (EEV 121GW) soon!
