Look at the Amazon angry reviews for that. Besides poor accuracy, it gives random results. |

I do hope you agree with the fact the DMT-99 is showing way too much digits versus its accuracy. I hope you also see that measuring 0.01 Ohm is not going to happen with a relatively simple, 2 wire DMM. Heck, most 6.5 digit DMMs will have trouble doing that even though these typically have 4 wire connections. Your best bet for measuring low resistance values is likely the Keithley DMM6500 which has a 1 Ohm range versus the usual >= 200 Ohm range being the lowest range for resistance measurements on DMMs. --- End quote --- The actual manual from the FNIRSI site begs to differ, see below. So given that, it meets your criteria for better than 1%. Yes, I agree .01 ohm is a tough call for a simple and cheap 2 wire DMM and this one is only good to .1Ω. I had misread the specification earlier .. so RFTM properly. My bad on that one. I'll correct the offending post. Comparing this to Keithley is like bringing tank to a snowball fight. Anyway, I know everyone has a hate-on for older meters but my Fluke 8012A is a 2-wire meter with a 2Ω range. It works well despite its age. |

Maybe they had an older firmware :-// |
