I want to buy a multimeter for an electronics project & I want to spend around $20 any suggestions?
I can get away with spending more but at $30 my wife will give me a hard time and at $50 I will get in trouble.
I am working on an LED lighting project for my aquarium that runs off of A/C power. So I need to build a gizmo that converts the A/C into something I can use to power the LEDs. I am mostly just screwing around to see if I can light my aquarium with an LED canopy I built myself so this isn't a job where I must have all the latest greatest stuff. I am kind of anal about doing things right the first time so I want to get the meter that meets my needs without spending so much my wife will have a fit.
Part of what I am using the meter for is testing components I will be salvaging from old computers and other types of circuit boards and power supplies. I would like it to be easy to read and use.I am following the directions in a book I got at my library's annual book sale.
I often use multimeters that cost barely $9.95-15.99 and they work well for my electronic testing / repair projects. Here are some choices that you can look into, drawn from my own list sheet of test instruments:
DT830B Handyman Digital Multimeter ($9.99)
MAS830L Multimeter with Back Light ($15.99)
BM6401 Multimeter with Auto Ranging ($18.95)
DT9205B Full-size multimeter with Capacitance ($19.95)
The costs might be a little different where you live but these are the ranges I usually pay for my multimeters.
