JASLEEN A1X Smart Digital Multimeter Tester Rechargeable Electrical Voltmeter, Measures Capacitance Diode Continuity Resistance V-Alert Live Check AC DC Voltage

But this works really well. It’s auto function does work. The circuit sensor does as well. Decent product.

What I like:- Easy to use current detection- Automatic metering did what I neededWhat I didn’t like:- Confusing modes, some never seem to work- Limited range of current detectionI needed a multimeter to check the voltage of a project I was working on, but didn’t want to go over budget for the project so thought I’d give this budget multimeter a try.For the use cases I had, it worked perfectly, and allowed me to troubleshoot the wire fault of the small solar power USB charger I was building. The easy to use current detection feature is also something I can see myself using as I have managed to shock myself too many times to mention. In this case though I did have to have the probe in almost direct contact with the wire, and so cannot use the probe to trace a live wire though an interior wall void.It met the needs of my project, and is definitely an overdue addition to my toolbox, but the confusing modes and how they are accessed is a big let down, so a functional but could do better 3 out of 5 stars,.

As someone new to using lots of tools while remodeling my first home, I found this multimeter reasonable for basic tasks.I had some trouble getting the full auto feature to work. It only covered half of the features on the right side of the ring, and I had to toggle through the options on the left manually. Also, I couldn’t get the screen to turn red, but the green was bright enough and easy to read, so that wasn’t a big issue.One downside was the lack of a case. With the probes detaching, there are three pieces to carry around. Most multimeters come with a case to keep everything together and within reach. I’m currently using a twist-tie to keep the wires attached to the unit, which is inconvenient.As a homeowner rather than an expert, I might not know enough to use this multimeter intuitively. The instructions were very small and not helpful, so I couldn’t learn much from them.My Dad who hovers over and takes over every project that I do thinks this is a good multimeter especially considering the price point. His multimeter has some more functions but was three times the price.When our main use for this tool is just to tell which wires are live and which arent- this is a fantastic item. I don’t personally need a lot of technical specifics and I frankly wouldn’t understand them.I’m just looking to make sure I don’t electrocute myself while removing a previous homeowner’s messy, unprofessional electrical work.

This is a reasonable multimeter for the basics.I could not get full auto to work. It covered half of the features (right hand side of ring) and then I needed to toggle individually among the options on the left. I could not get the screen to turn red. But the green was plenty bright and easy to read so that is not a real issue.A case was really needed and was missing. The probes detach and there are effectively 3 pieces that you need to carry around. Most multimeters come with cases that keeps everything toegether and in reach. For this one, I am using a twist-tie to bind the wires tot he unit. That’s just a mess and I expect the wires to snag on something or get detached when ti rubs against another thing in my tool box. Maybe I’ll. find a case on Amazon, but it’ll be tough to size well and just raises the price for this multimeter compared to others out there that include a case.And I recognize that as a consumer/homeowner type vs. an expert, I may just not know enough to use this multimeter intuitively. The instructions were really small and quite poor so I could not get more education that way. I will plan to learn more via some instructional videos.
