--- Quote from: Trader on November 02, 2021, 08:40:47 pm --- --- Quote from: marck120 on November 02, 2021, 08:56:27 am ---The budget is quite low, I thought I would spend about € 100 - € 120, as far as possible I would like to get a valid multimeter, with good build quality and that lasts over time. Which model do you recommend ? --- End quote --- Uni-T UT161, will cost +- $70 on AliExpress 11-11 (AC 20kHz, AC+DC). Or Kaisi K-9033 (dual display and bargraph) or Aneng AN870 for +- $32. Or if you just want to have a DMM for eventual use at home: Aneng M118A (auto selection and range) for $11 --- End quote --- About the aneng and uni-t multimeters they explained this to me, this is what they wrote to me: "Forget the various ANENG and emulate digital multimeters (already because they exist also rebranded). Dave Jones when he examined one (and to realize it just open one as I did on my 8008) highlighted the internal constructive danger. Yes, because they are invariably all (including the aforementioned UNI-T 61E) with alleged certifications for the various categories of overvoltages induced on the electricity distribution networks, 105% disregarded. As a design of the printed circuit (dimensions, areas of respect provided to avoid the firing of dangerous internal sparks due to the limited space; absence of slots in the air, etc.) as well as as passive components for managing the transistors (PTC first of all but also varistors with metal oxides, gas dischargers these very uncommon indeed). And this is a question of safety first of all that the purchase price; Digital multimeters of this kind are only suitable as fourth, fifth equipment and only for direct current measurements (within 250 Volts AC ... I wouldn't dare to measure potential differences above 400 Volt AC at 50 Hz). " |

I think my Hantek 2C42 is border line valid as a DMM but it does fit your budget - you get an oscilloscope to boot. Can't comment much on the previous suggestions (Uni-T, BM235, used Fluke 87V, BM235, Fluke 17B, UT61E, Aneng 8008/8009/870, BM257, Fluke 101, used Gossen Metrawatt et al) other than a quality DMM appears to be at least a long lasting product, in my experience. |
