ALLOSUN Pocket Size Compact Digital Multimeter Auto Range Multi Continuity Tester (EM3082 (auto Range))

The first thing you need to do when you receive this multimeter is remove the plastic keeping the batteries from making contact. It is best to open the case as if you are going to use it, then remove the two #1 Phillips screws. Remove the plastic tab and put the back back on. The meter itself is stable (I've seen some reviews that say otherwise), it matches readings from one of my Flukes, and it seems to work great. I haven't tried every setting, but it worked well for everything I need it to do. I didn't buy it for any serious work, but rather a meter that is easy to keep in a travel bag or glove box. In terms of ease of use, if you know how to use a multimeter, there is no reason to look at the instructions that came with it. There are three things that I think could be better: first, I added a little silver Sharpie to the little arrow on the mode selector to make it easier to read. Second, I am a little concerned about how the hinges for the top cover work. I feel like they may be the weak link in the system and may break. Time will tell. The final thing is that there is a little clip for the test leads. It too feels a little cheaply made. However, this isn't going to be my every-day meter, so it should all be fine. Oh, yeah... how do you beat that price!?

Good enough inexpensive meter. It fits my need for an inexpensive, small, simple test meter. I have a Klein Multimeter for the bigger important tasks. This one is kept in my desk drawer and easily fits into a shirt pocket. It works fine but it doesn't seem very durable. Test leads are hard wired behind the face so no easy fixes if broken. The plastic case hinges make the cover easily removable (is this on purpose?) but may be knocked loose and lost. All the functions work as expected and for the price it's hard to beat for simple jobs.

Small and compact.

Nice compact works as it should

simple, compact and good but annoying case in my opinion. hinges come loose and not easy to fit the wires sometimes.

I love the size of this unit, it easily fits in a shirt or back pocket. This is one of the few units that actually measure Milliamps which is a plus so with all the other functions, this is a really complete and compact unit. Other people are impressed that it does all it does. Obviously with long winded and more critical and high voltage issues you want a fully loaded and heavy duty voltmeter, amp meter and so on which we have but, for everyday casual inspections this is a convenient tool to keep in your pocket. I recommend this product.

I ordered this multimeter on August 30th and it arrived promptly. I took it out of the box and read the manual. After that I turned it on and tried it on a couple of electrical items and tested some batteries. It worked perfect so I shut it off and put it in my toolbox. I needed to use it today so I got it out and turned it on. But nothing happened. After trying many solutions I had to face the fact it was dead. Granted, the unit was not expensive but it should last for many hours of use, not 30 minutes. Since the return window is now closed that's $20 going in the trash.

The pocket Digital Multimeter (EM3082) is compact and handy for travel or just keeping around in a service kit as an extra. The particular unit I received has very good DC accuracy compared to its specification, being only off by about 2 in the least significant digit at 15VDC. However, each unit will different. Unfortunately one of the two LR44 batteries has a plastic tab from the factory to prevent accidental use. After removing the two screws on the back, popping out the DVM from the case, and removing the plastic tab it still did not operate. I had to remove the batteries and bend the flimsy contacts a bit so that they would make contact. Only time will tell how long they last, but it should not be so difficult. A small quibble is that the function pointer on the dial is essentially illegible, being slightly raised plastic black on black. A touch of white paint is in order.

Muy práctico para traer en la maleta de herramientas, su exactitud es aceptable y el costo conveniente.

Good value! Easy to use! I would recommend for low voltage electrical work.

Works as suppose to.

Me gusta lo compacto del multimetro para traer en caja de herramientas para uso ocasional

Works just fine so far.
