OK youz guys. Recommend me a good clamp meter that's not going to bust the bank I don't need a Fluke. I have realized that a clamp meter would be very handy right about now ( relative to my innova multimeter ) Thanks! f This one gets good reviews? https://www.amazon.com/KAIWEETS-Multimeter-Auto-ranging-Temperature-Capacitance/dp/B07Z398YWF - https://www.amazon.com/KAIWEETS-Multimeter-Auto-ranging-Temperature-Capacitance/dp/B07Z398YWF

The Chinese meters change all the time, add features, new company names for the same meter, etc. I tend to just get the lowest cost one with the features I want unless the reviews trash it. The assumption being that this is going to sit in the rpod tool case and get only occasional use, rather than be a go to daily use tool.
This one looks interesting. DC current, capacitance, temperature, non contact feature, various probe sets, 6000 counts.. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B08MTY51R4/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?smid=A2WIZBA4LZM5RA&psc=1# - multimeter ------------- 1994 Chinook Concourse 1995 RV6A Experimental Aircraft 2015 Rpod 179 - sold |

HVAC tech was using this one today. I think I bought him another one. https://www.amazon.com/UEi-Test-Instruments-DL379B-Digital/dp/B00ZWVXT8W - https://www.amazon.com/UEi-Test-Instruments-DL379B-Digital/dp/B00ZWVXT8W f ------------- 2014 RPod 178 => https://goo.gl/CV446f - MyMods and Buying Habits 2008 4Runner Limited 4.0-liter V6 Yes, those are wild ponies dining on grass while dumping tanks! |

Don't get that one, it doesn't have DC current capability. HVAC techs don't need it but rpod owners do.  ------------- 1994 Chinook Concourse 1995 RV6A Experimental Aircraft 2015 Rpod 179 - sold |
