Handheld, fast DMM with manual range, constant backlight and no auto off exists?

<< < (5/6) > >>

LinuxHata:
I do have an old Sinometer DMM, which I bought around 2006. It has separate, latching buttons for both backlight and power, so it does it's job fine. The issue is that due to excessive use, the dial contacts are in really bad shape and no cleaning can help.

The only "problem" is that I can't find multimeter with specs which I need, so this is why I asked, maybe someone knows such multimeter. And  suggestions like "why you don't want auto range" is like when a guy asks - "Please help me with the directions to the post office?" and instead of directions he gets - "we need to know what is your problem, maybe a pub or strip club is the place where you should go?" :D

If 2000 count OK, check out Uni Trend's UT51; UT52 if you need capcitance measurement function. They are manual ranging, simple meters based on 7106, rather large in size with big displays and have all the ranges for AVO functions. As per their manual they don't have auto power off. They do have a separate power switch. They also don't have any backlight but I think you can install one and connect it to the main power switch. They are very old models I think but for some reason, they are still available on AliExpress.

It seems that what you search for is a rare bird - I think people are trying to understand the "whys" so they might be able to give some suggestions that you might find useful even if they don't hit all the of check list items in the case that your target remains elusive.

Suppose the nearest Post Office is 100 miles away and is closed anyway, but the local store has a mail drop and such.  Before answering your question, wouldn't it be helpful to know if you just wanted to mail a letter or buy a stamp versus wanting to apply for a passport?

On a different note, thankyou all, I have struggling for years with my u1241b coming up in AC mode by default and it never occurred to me to check the bloody manual for changing configuration settings.
