AstroAI TRMS 6000 Counts Digital Multimeter with Auto-Ranging, CAT III 600V | Volt Meter with Backlit LCD, Multimeter Tester Measures Voltage, Current, Frequency, Temperature, Continuity, Capacitance

If you are looking for a full function budget multimeter, this one is certainly worth looking at. My only small gripe with this unit, and it may not be a problem for you, is the illumination function, or backlight. Whilst it works and certainly improves clarity of the display in lower light conditions, it de-illuminates far to quickly. You press the button to use it, obviously you are looking at the unit, then you apply your probes to what ever it is you are measuring, but then the backlight turns off in about 15 secs, which may or may not be enough time to get your reading depending on how easy it is to apply the probes. I would prefer the illumination stayed on for longer, or better yet, an option to have the backlight remain on permanently. The unit is solid and feels sturdy in hand. The probes fit snuggly into the ports and are comfortable to hold. The magnet is strong enough to hang the unit if you can find something to stick it to, but if you use the magnet on back of the unit making a loop, it doesn't hold it very securely, but I do not think it is designed to be used like that. The magnet is easily removable with a Velcro strap should you wish to. The stand that extends from the back, has a small amount of give, making it slightly less rigid. I like this because should you put the unit down too hard the stand will give a little, rather than being too rigid and breaking. It is more likely to survive an accidental drop. The red silicone outer sleeve actually seems very accurately made, mine came off with a small amount of encouragement (it didn't fall off easily) and when re-fitted went back on perfectly. I do not know why you would really want to use the unit without, as it offers drop and insulating protection. The pictures are accurate and not mis leading, you get what is pictured and it looks the same as shown. I had a small issue, after contacting the seller, I received a prompt and polite reply that was eager to offer help and assistance, the Issue was resolved very swiftly. Sometimes things go wrong and how we are dealt with, can really change the whole experience. Despite my gripe, this is unit is perfect for my needs. Remembering this is a budget unit, I feel that you are getting a good product for the price point, some people have mentioned cheap construction, but lets be fair, for the price it is well made. Functionality is all there and this unit measures what is states. On top though, my interaction with this seller was friendly and helpful. I am confident that should I purchase something else from this seller and I have and issue, it will be genuinely looked into and I will be offered polite, friendly and helpful assistance (because that already happened). Friends, you can buy with confidence, in my opinion, from this seller.

good piece of equipment simple to use and robust. magnetic hanger is useful

My UNI-T 135C multi-meter just stopped working after two years for no apparent reason, seems a common problem with that meter after doing a bit of research online. I wanted to replace it with something similar, this one from AstroAI has all the same measurement functions except for NCV, which is a shame but this meter was half the price of the UNI-T meter and has the same reasonably fast 6000-count auto-ranging for basic Voltage, Resistance and Current measurements and nice extras like temperature and capacitance measurement. The continuity tester is not that fast but the beep is loud. There is a handy magnetic strap for fixing the meter to suitable metal surfaces so it hangs down conveniently at eye-level, but you can remove the velcro fastener if you don't need to use it. Auto-Power-Off can be disabled by holding down the Select button when turning the meter on (you'll hear three short beeps and the "APO" symbol will disappear from the display). One other thing I miss apart from NCV is that this meter doesn't display the frequency when measuring AC voltage and current, you must manually switch the dial to Hz/Duty to see this, which is not so convenient. Otherwise I think this is a perfectly good meter and certainly good value.

Excellent multimeter and has great functions and range settings

Does everything I need it to do. Great value at £21.

For ages I've had one of those cheap multimeters, and I really fancied something a bit more capable - this did not disappoint. I got it, the Khanka Hard Case, and the separate test leads kit all together as a gift to myself. While I might have loved to own Fluke, this one does what I need without breaking the bank! It comes with enough stuff to be immediately very good, though I prefer the test leads from the separate kit - the stock ones are fine and still come with removable tip shrouds (so you don't accidentally short between component legs so easily). The display is nice and big, and there's no problem with viewing angle. The backlight is electroluminescent or similar, so it's a good uniform blue to read off. The built-in stand is nice and steady, but it can jam sometimes when folding back in. There's an integrated magnetic strap too, which I've not had to use yet but which is very good at picking up steel grinding dust from the workbench. While the test leads are all properly shrouded for safety, you can also plug in regular 4mm banana leads if you're doing a hookup on a bench (the separate test leads kit comes with spring clip leads with stacking banana connectors, which can be really handy for certain setups). One feature I bought this specifically for is that the current measurement ranges all use separate connectors - so there's never a situation where the voltage test ports are shorted together. So long as you're methodical and always return your leads to the main input, you're unlikely to accidentally blow up fuses (or equipment). There are two separate current connections and both are separately fused; there is no unfused range. The current shunts are somewhere around 100mΩ (A connector), 1Ω (mA setting) 100Ω (µA setting).

Bought for my partner, who is very particular about his tools. Absolutely loves it, won't let anyone touch it!

I bought this as a spare, in case I need a simple multimeter for testing or small projects. This multimeter is obviously not a High-end meter but with a wide range of functionality - it is a great choice for its price when it comes to doing Home electrical, Automotive (12vdc) electrical troubleshooting, Heater/Boilers troubleshooting (24vac), Solar installation testing and troubleshooting (12-48vdc), etc. · It has a nice and useful magnetic hanger. · It has a stand for the multimeter to stay up (unfortunately, it is a bit fragile - open it carefully). · Easy to use, compact, and has easy to read display. This is not the meter I would use to make sensitive electronics, fine adjustments of electrical components, computer work, etc. - for computer work/repairing motherboards/sensitive components - I prefer something more expensive, multifunctional and more accurate. 👉 This meter is also nice because if you accidentally damage it or lose it you are not out much money. ✔ Pros: + Build Quality is OK for the price + Big screen + Backlit + Easy to Use + Affordable ✖ Cons: - Fragile kickstand - ’’Glow’’ effect on the right side of the screen - Rigid switch - Beep, Beeep, BEEP (lots of beeping) The reason I am giving this multimeter 4 stars is because the issues with this meter are really not issues to me, or rather: they are not so significant for my purposes - because the situations that cause those issues can usually be worked around and 99% of the things, I use this meter for work accurately and rapidly. Overall, I think this is okay for a lot of home uses especially for the price. I would probably buy a much better meter if I needed something for a professional job. ↘ ↘ ↘ If you found this review helpful, please show some love by clicking the "Helpful" button below.

Great for the price does more than what I needed but happy it's accurate

Super outil indispensable pour la bidouille

Aun no lo uso pero parase que es muy buena calidad

Il multimetro arrivato è nuovo, sigillato e completo di accessori come in descrizione. Si presta bene ad un uso semiprofessionale e domestico. E' inoltre possibile registrare il prodotto sul sito web del produttore, estendendo così la garanzia a 3 anni. Soddisfatto. ATTENZIONE: esiste sul marketplace un' imitazione di altro brand facilmente riconoscibile per estetica e caratteristiche, assolutamente non affidabile e fornito con pinzette a coccodrillo sottodimensionate per il range di misura AC - DC 10A. Da diffidare.

Good meter with many features and accessories not usually supplied on other multimeters, transistor tester, thermometer, and magnetic hanging loop. Good backlit display, but doesnt stay illuminated for long,there may be a way of changing this, just need to look it up. Inexpensive meter, already have digital clampmeter from this manufacturer, no problems.
