Gents,

On your web site is mentioned “Optional AC/DC 60A current clamps in different models to measure current up to 60A(1mv=1A)”;
Where can I found the current clamp? Has it a separate ordering code?

Regards!

Uni-T actually don't have anything like that yet in their product line. You should be able to use any generic current clamps that work with multimeter though, such as this: http://www.amazon.com/Tecpel-CA-60-AC-Current-Clamp/dp/B002IRU3IM

I am beginning to think that Dave needs to enforce mandatory country settings in member's profiles. How many times do we need to ask people to tell us where they are so they can buy from the right place?

Franky has a 630mA 500V fuse but that does no meet the CAT rating. But I am sure if you ask Franky he can get the right fuse.

Is it still the case right now? As far as I know people from Germany should be able to see my store now http://stores.ebay.com/99centhobbies

I'm out of stock on the 630mA 500V fuses though. 600mA 600V is actually a tricky one to source...

Cool now i can see it :D

Last time i checked it, it was not possible.

Which alternatives do i can use for the UT139C ?

I will try to source some 6x32mm 600mA 1000V fuse, which would be suitable for both the UT139C and Brymen BM257S that I sell. It will likely take some time though as these fuses are not common.

In the mean time I guess you can try to buy some 500mA 500V or above rated fuse, which should do the job just fine as long as you know the limitations.

Ok then i buy for the mean time your suggested ratings and when you sourced the suitable fuses for these meter then i buy some from you :)

Do i can use 6.3mmx32mm aswell?

Yes, that should be fine. The sizes always vary slightly but the fuse holder should be able to accommodate them.

The 857S is out now 3Room.
They fixed the backlight (perhaps some other changes IDK)!

just curious @ franky, would you happen to have a ballpark price of brymen bm857a if you were to sell it?

I couldn't get good pricing on that model so I gave up a long time ago. The tme.eu pricing was (still is) incredibly low there's no way I would be able to compete.

Aren't there more specific specs needed than just the current and voltage ratings?

SSchaffrath: Try ebay.com instead of ebay.de. Maybe not all international sellers are listed in the .de site.

If you look at the image of the fuses, you can see that they are also rated for breaking 10kA and have a UL symbol on them. Whether they actually are UL tested is another matter. The fact that they show a clean room and some kind of IC inspection or testing lab leads me to believe that they are not showing the actual environment they have for making fuses :bullshit:

DT2843R has True-RMS with DC, UT139C appears to be True-RMS AC only
Could this be confirmed in the meantime? In the manual of the 139C I find all the three symbols listed (Table VIII "Knobs and Keys for Range selection").

139C measures true RMS AC only. Bandwidth is narrow at 1kHz for voltage and current.

Makes me wonder.  With a 1kHz bandwidth, what would you expect to see at 5/10/20kHz?

Something like this, but with the slope starting at 1kHz:

So as long as it's pure sine you can just compensate?

Probably not, as the curve could change shape with input voltage.

These fuses go for 40-50 dollars EACH, as per Digikey. Even in 1000's quantities they cost $25. How can these $70 multimeters afford to have them (and you need TWO)?

Actually, it's just Digikey. Element 14 only charges around 8 dollars and a 5 pack on Ebay (in original packaging) is around 45 so it's not THAT bad. Not sure why Digikey charges so much, must be a pricing mistake.

Has anyone explored the (unsoldered) header on the PCB (visible
)? 

VDD, WP, SLC, SDA, V1, and two labeled CAL?

Hey!

1.) Can anyone who owns this UT139C meter please measure burden voltage?
2.) What is measured accurancy at uA, mA, A range?
3.) Is contuinity test fast?

Best Regards Matic
