Re: Bench Multimeter for £30
Cheers for that, just ordered one.
Re: Bench Multimeter for £30
Nipped down to Loughborough tonight as they were the only store to have one in the shop. so ordered it on line and reserved it
Got there and it had no box and the lid was missing. Well kicked off right good and proper, told them had to knock off work early, drive 25 miles uphill in the pouring rain, not fed me dog etc, etc.
Anyway got it for £22.50 with a set of batteries thrown in.
Soon make a cover on the laser, mind you that one will still go missing.
Re: Bench Multimeter for £30

Can't resist a bargain, hope this is a bargain, I'll let you know when it arrives :thumsup:
Re: Bench Multimeter for £30
Maplin seem to have them in stock for delivery, and delivery is included. I actually don't like Maplin, they have gone from being a useful electronics components source to a toy shop. I suppose the bean counters are in charge. With Maplin, I would have expected a price of £129.99 ! Maybe someone has made a cock-up with the price or they have a container load of them to shift. Chinese goods can be stupidly cheap, for instance, those £50 bench drills are imported by the container load at around £5 each (which is all they are worth when the quill is so sloppy !).

Forgive me my ignorance, but how is that better than my 10 euro multimeter from lidl pdm 250 a2? I see the bench one could measure temperature, but i have very good laser gun thermometer to 1300C . Anything else that one might need ? In the DIY CNC line of things i mean.

In terms of measurement ranges, it does frequency, capacitance and temperature >230C. It has a large back-lit display and can be mains powered. Otherwise it is functionally the same as the lidl one, I guess.
BUT it is a Bench Multimeter, and I reckon it is big enough to use as a bench :glee:.

That's the multi in multimeter. Another advantage is that you are more likely to notice if one of those thieving sparkies tries to make off with it !
