It's very important to zero before measuring (with the clamp). Do it right before you measure, close to what you are going to measure, and don't change the orientation more than you absolutely need to between zeroing and measuring. Otherwise the earth's magnetic field + and other ambient magnetic fields will make your measurement less accurate. Even just moving it half a meter and rotating it 90 degrees can significantly impact the reading. This is a limitation of all clamps since they rely on measuring the magnetic field, and ambient magnetic fields exist all around us. This is a great hobbyist-level (or even low-level professional) tool. Really great price for the quality that you get in terms of the electronics at least. I wouldn't subject it to rough use since it's not poted ect., but if you are using one of these on a day-to-day basis then you probably have a professional-level tool already. For my use with home electrics and PC-enthusiast work it's great since I treat all my tools gently anyway. I got one for an absolute steal on ebay just recently.

Hi Paul. I mentioned this meter and that your friend Big Clive had it too. And also big Great Scott uses one I found out. You are a bit mistaken about handling this meter for right handed people. I think this is because your are left handed? In your right hand you have your forefinger on the trigger (clamp), just like holding a gun, but I got little experience with that since that hardware is not allowed here. In this way you are able to control the dial with your thumb which feels very natural and in this way you can easily read the display. I got mine this thursday from China for 38, very happy with it :)

The only reason why I haven't gotten a UT181A is that it can be killed by static electricity by applying it on the input side.

The UT139C and UT139E however are immune to static electricity, I'm quite comfortable with those two knowing they will just keep living.

I understand your take about replacing the provided probes with yours, without even testing them: as an engineer it's perfectly understandable, since _you_ know that _your_ probes are reliable and accurate, and you only want to test the multimeter - *_not_* the whole product. But imho, it's part of the deal so why not (no will not start a new channel lol)? I *know* those UNI-T probes that are provided with their kits, even the UT181A that I bought offering grey probes with caps (supposed to be on their higher end of their product line), are utter crap. Until I got better and more "complete" ones, I used cheap old probes that came along a 10$CAD multimeter and which worked much better... Anyway, good review, thanks: I won't buy this because the NCV (those clamps being the main purpose of this specific multimeter) doesn't seem reliable at all.

I'm from Australia. I've got a few sets of Brymen test leads. They are very nice, gold plated, rubberised handle, silicone insulation, 18awg, come with screw-on banana connector on the tip end. I also have two sets of probemaster leads, same as yours. I have to say, I don't have a preference between the two in terms of performance, but I do prefer the Brymen cuz they are cheaper and easier for us aussies to get, Franky sells them on eBay. I also have a few sets of expensive Fluke leads, TL175, Tl71, TL224 and a few attachments but I don't remember their model numbers. They are nice, but really they are not something I recommend because of their prices. I've recently discovered a set of cheap high quality leads. It's branded Cleqee, no idea how to pronounce that. The model i have is P1503. The wires are very flexible, I doubt it's silicone, but it feels flexible enough that I'd call it "half silicone". The wire gauge feels like 18/16 awg, I've yet to test actual internal resistance yet. The handles and plugs are both rubberised and feel great to the touch. The tips are moduler too. One big things I love about these probes than all my other more expensive ones is that, these probe handles can be bent quite a bit! They can flex and bend in your hand. I really can't get enough of these leads. They are just so comfortable to hold! EDIT: fix stupid typos

Our dear friend, 1) If you think about it again, you will see that you are probably not right about the grip on the device, so your note on device design will necessarily be wrong (in fact you are holding the device upside down). This device is design to grip with your right hand, and the "Thumb" is designed to operate the mode selector wheel, not the clump. Operate the clump should be done with your "Index" finger. 2) I really liked your review, and in fact you will know that this device can be obtained relatively safely also through their official store on AliExpress (which this website needs a lot of caution) at a significantly lower price (the price goes up and down, but the average is 34USD, including shipping). 3) I thank you very much for your videos.

Thanks for the video homesteader! Like many, I use mine for automotive diagnostics as it's compact size is a big plus, but I'm not thrilled with the readings i get on many low resistance devices (could be operator error, I confess). It sure is hard to zero on DC voltage, but I guess that's because it's reading millivolts -not a plus for my applications, sort of distracting, but i just ignore it like you do. I also find the NCV to be a bit iffy at times and I don't entirely trust it. Thanks for the quality leads comments -as a DIY'er, that's something that we sometimes fail to consider sufficiently.

Die NCV -Funktion ist leicht auch ohne Verbraucher als stromführender Phasenmesser einsetzbar (ähnlich wie an der Glimmlampe auf Strom und Nullphase messbar). Zumindest bei UNI-T ging dies überperfekt. Einfacher Trick: man wickelt die schwarze Kabelstrippe der roten Messleitung um die Mess-Zange 4x außen ganz umrundend herum und klemmt den roten Messstift fixierend zwischen die Zange nach vorne ein, mit der Spitze nach vorne zeigend. Mit der anderen Hand greift man auf Kontakt mit der schwarzen Meßleitung.

For people in Europe: You can get these probes at Welectron: www.welectron.com/ but they are more expensive compared to the US. Personally I use the Brymen probes cuz they are cheaper (10 Euros for a pair) and they also are gold-plated and have really soft silicone leads. But I plan to get some Probemasters for comparison. I highly recommend everyone to get good probes for your multimeter. Even for cheap ones like the Anengs it will make a huge difference for your measurements. They just make much better contact and are so much nicer to use.

Thanks for the tip on the Brymen probes

It's made right for right handed people you're just holding it wrong.Your index finger goes on the clamp and your thumb controls the wheel. Much easier to use.

I'm from UK and just use overpriced genuine Fuke aftermarket leads. One set with fixed probes and the other with banana plugs both ends to use Fluke croc clips ect.

Come on! You missed the most important feature! Non contact Direct current amperage! It is suppsed to be a selling feature of this meter! Does it even work? If so, how accurate? Miiliamps? Two thumbs down.

Oldricky.....Check out the short on my channel, loaded it up especially for you.... I did no intensive testing, rather a quick check.... To answer in advance....19 milliamps worked fine.....

This is an old video so I hope you've realised by now that you're supposed to operate the lever with your finger like a gun trigger. it's not a flaw. Literally, 99% of clamp meters have the lever on the same side.

OL is Over Limit, not Open Loop
@learnelectronics4 жыл бұрын
I disagree
@MultiMeterChannel4 жыл бұрын
So, assume you have a 600V meter connected to a circuit, measuring 590 Volts. Now, leaving the meter connected, you increase the voltage to 610 Volts, and the display switches to OL. You are saying that that connected meter is indicating Open Loop (when it is closed), and not Over Limit? Sorry, but you are wrong.

One of the biggest challenges for a meter is "true RMS". Does anybody know of a review that tests the accuracy of the UT210E re true RMS? Just on simple waveforms like half & full wave rectified sine wave & square wave would be good. Edit: just found this Amazon review by a meteorologist that tests true RMS (although not rectified sine): www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R1W3TYFDI0IWZF/

Emmmmm, No in circuit current measurement SUCKS most well, Eaaaa? Well limits the scope of use some what. Still handy looking and not as clunky as some , eaaa! AVE has one Dead Bug out of the Box.

Inline DC current measurement is completely unnecessary when you have the clamp. Cheaper clamp-meters have inline current measurement for DC, because they only measure AC current with the clamp.

Do not spend more than $30 on these overseas clamp meters, they are no comparison to a Klein meter, there are 3 models that test DC current, CL380, CL800, CL900.
