Bench Multimeter - Victor 8246a - TEARDOWN

[@ssalient]

This looks like a nice multimeter indeed and although it’s “just” a VFD instead of LCD multi color screen it seems like a better deal than the mentioned East Tester models.

[@TheFirefoxSystem]

To be exact, the only difference between the VC8246A and the VC8246B is that model B is able to measure AC voltages up to a frequency of 1KHz while model A can go up to 50KHz. Both can measure voltages up to 1000Vdc (from -1000V to +1000V) and 750Vac.

Hola, excelente video, el multímetro se ve hermoso por dentro y por fuera. He revisado las características de las dos versiones de este multímetro y veo que los dos son CAT II, los dos miden hasta 750V AC . La única diferencia entre las dos versiones es el ancho de banda al medir voltaje AC; 8246a BW 50Khz vs. 8246b BW 1Khz. Quiero comprar uno, no importa cual de los dos. Gracias por tus videos, saludos desde Bogota-Colombia

Any idea if you can calibrate this? or there is a function? I have an 8245 model and the readings are way off

Looks pretty good Livyu, I hope it serves you well. I couldn't help but notice the big scar on your left hand. What happened? Looks like it was pretty serious. Prop strike?

[@LivyuFPV]

LoL :) no... not propstrike. I kind of peeled of a line scratching against a big alu tool case. Thanks !

[@bloodnocka]

@@LivyuFPV Good to hear it was nothing serious. You're never the same after you have had a decent prop fight 👍

[@LivyuFPV]

@@bloodnocka Well... I had an experience 10 or so years ago with an heli balancing rotor... and I learned my lesson.

@@LivyuFPV hi, how fast is the detection in the continuity testing? Necesitamos una reseña despues de un año de uso, gracias por compartir

@@pirucosaenz597 not on the fast side...

Hey, how fast is the detection in the continuity testing? cheers

[@wafiullah-shafia]

Thank you I'm so interested in this DMM Does version B inside is same as A I mean same quality? ?

[@kaybhee6]

good idea use metal pointer

try ut61e,,, and xdm2041 maybe
