for a fast checker its great probably not as accurate as a meter that cost many times more but you can check to see if the circuit is on or off has all the features of a more expensive unit

Great product for the price! This is super small, auto sense AC/DC sources, does continuity, has built in non contact voltage sensor. The size the the reason I bought this, and its self contained compact style form is perfect. The only thing I didn't care for is in the continuity mode, in order to have an audible alert, you have to select it, that should be default. While this won't be do-all meter, it is functional enough for 80% of the work I do.

This has been a great little meter. Not for heavy duty regular use, I bought this to place in a portable tool kit with mechanical tools when I need a quick checker. So far it’s been a good choice.

Nice little multimeter. I got it for motorcycle trips. It seems to work as it should and is nice and compact. The hinged door I’m a little careful with opening and closing but because it’s so small and lightly built, it’s a small issue, no biggy. I’d buy it again if I needed another one.

like it in work, a mite less impressed with having to unscrew things to emplace a batter, but that's just me being lazy. I carry it in a wheelchair pocket, so it goes everywhere with me.

This is a very budget and pocket friendly multimeter. It’s small, well built and I think is accurate and precise enough. If this is your first multimeter, it’s a great starting point; if you want a portable one, I think it’s great for that; if you want to show off, stop reading and get a Fluke.It’s not a Fluke and it costs a small fraction of it, so any comparison to Fluke or a Bryman or any other big brand is unfair. I’ll try my best to give you an overview of what this is and what is not.Construction: It feels pretty solid, it will not survive a fall from more than your desk though, so don’t leave it unattended on the roof of your house. The leads are permanently attached to it, and their cable is not super flexible, but it’s not hard stiff either. I can put the leads back to their intended position in the case without any problem every time I use it. The clamp case is convenient to store everything in a smaller package than a modern phone, but it’s not really convenient for having it in a stand up position (also, the whole thing is pretty light and any tension/pressure on the leads will move it) but you can let it laying flat on the table and it will be OK. The dial feels as if it will survive some years of moderate usage, but the front of the unit and the function keys are made of a soft plastic that will be damaged if not handled with care. I did a small dent on it after closing it without putting the leads in the correct position.Features: Let me start with what other users complain about.Continuity: The buzzer is not super loud but it’s not faint either, I actually like the volume it has. It’s fast and not scratchy at all..Protection: I agree with other reviewers, this one seems to have almost no protection at all, and because the leads are permanently attached, you can fry it if you put it in the current position by mistake while measuring a power source. I always adjust the dial and double check it’s not in current mode before testing a circuit. The good thing is that if you make a mistake, you can get another one because these are not expensive. Having no protection would be a really bad thing if this was a 3 figures DMM, but it’s not. I use it for electronics circuits where the protection is not really needed.Battery: I also agree with some complaints, it’s kind of a hassle to change the battery, you need to disassemble the whole thing, but it is not the end of the world and if you use it as a backup multimeter or a travel one, you probably will not be changing battery anytime soon.On the rest of the features, I did a comparison against the UT61E+ which costs a bit more and which I use as my main multimeter but which is bulkier and heavier. To be honest, the readings were so close that I feel very comfortable taking the Allosun as my only multimeter when I’m going as a volunteer to repair events. Please pay more attention to the discrepancies than to the overall accuracy and take into account that the Allosun is a 1000 count device vs 22000 in the UT61E+.DC Voltage:2.5V :: Allosun 2.508; UT61E+ 2.4985.0V :: Allosun 5.02; UT61E+ 5.0037.5V :: Allosun 7.53; UT61E+ 7.49810.0V :: Allosun 10.02; UT61E+ 10.002DC millivolts (Using a signal generator):1.0mV :: Allosun 1.1; UT61E+ 1.1910.0mV :: Allosun 10.0; UT61E+ 10.16AC Voltage:5.0V :: Allosun 5.002; UT61E+ 5.00810.0V :: Allosun 10.00; UT61E+ 10.01Hz(Using a signal generator): 60Hz :: Allosun 59.8; UT61E+ 59.98Ohm:30 Ohm :: Allosun 29.7; UT61E+ 30.0210 kOhm :: Allosun 10.00; UT61E+ 10.084Diode drop :: Allosun 0.554; UT61E+ 0.5416Capacitance:2.20mF :: Allosun 2.282; UT61E+ 2.306; DE-500 2.120.800mF :: Allosun 0.881; UT61E+ 0.9134; DE-500 0.820Current (reference value taken from what the power supply indicated):1mA :: Allosun 1.26; UT61E+ 1.2845mA :: Allosun 4.94; UT61E+ 4.96810mA :: Allosun 10.14; UT61E+ 10.164100mA :: Allosun 101.2; UT61E+ 101.31Notice that for capacitance I also used a DE-500, which is what I trust more for these measurements; for current, the reference value is the one reported by the power supply, which is quite probably less accurate than the DMMsSo, in summary, I do like it and will buy it again (actually I just did, the first one I had I left it with a family member I was recently visiting).

So far I have to say this little meter meets expectations. I've tested it all the way up to 480 volts and have yet to have an issue. That being said it isn't something that I expect to handle constant heavy loads but I carry it in my pocket here at work to just trouble shoot quickly before having to break out my larger meter. The leads are short and pretty sturdy for what they are designed for. They fit nicely in the case and the case is decent for the price. There is a small fuse next to the battery for protection when testing AMPs. You remove the two screws on the back and then take one of the leads to push the board up to install the battery. Work the lid a couple of times to loosen the hinges. Overall, all the features on this meter have worked and given close readings in comparison to my larger and feature laden name brand one. We will see how long it lasts but for $14 I can't complain.Oh, it is auto ranging so give it a second when testing to set the range.

I've used this meter for a few things around the house. It's small and handy to take in your pocket. I love the fact that it has a no touch current indicator. It's a delicate thing don't dropkick it across the room. I believe the design is great for small jobs. For the price I recommend it.

I use this for home and boat troubleshooting. It small enough to tuck into my pocket and accurate enough to work safely. I use it mostly for 12volt systems and household batteries but I have used it reliably for 110 volt circuits.

I took this thing all over Mexico, Guatemala, and El Salvador on my motorcycle. I can't count how many times it saved my butt. Had it for years and replaced the single AAA once.Only downside is it can't really do current, only 400mA, replaceable fuse which is nice. You could use a known value resistor as a shunt for high current measurement. The probes come a bit dull. I sharpened them.Other essentials in my kit were alligator clips, wig pins for backprobing, waygo connectors, battery soldering iron, solder & seal connectors, spare wire, adjustable DC-DC converter, USB lithium charger, USB adjustable DC-DC converter.
