Do you own a multimeter?

[Gray]

Simple question.
Only one answer.

 

[Vincent Kars]

Of course.
Don't know how to use it but that is another poll.

 

[DougK1]

Same answer as Vincent. All the gear, no idea me

 

[Dave_]

I have several, including a vintage "9083" from my BT days

Ditto. Occasionally used to check if a battery has any life in it

Looks like there are two answers to me!

But you can only give one - and yours is a yes too.

'Fraid it wasn't!

 

[Al ears]

Unfortunately I think we are bound to get more people that have them answering Yes than those that don't bothering to enter a No......
Interesting though.
These days it's the really keen, really old, or those that have one hanging around from a previous profession that own them.

There's a "change vote" button so, you can give two answers, albeit only one at a time...

Poor selection of possible answers.

I don’t have none or one. I have 3. But I have lost one.

Is this a puzzle? The answer is 2!

I have 1 for servicing/repairing guitars, pedals & amps

Unless they acquire or lose one this week, it will be a strange person that needs to change their answer 🤨

Possibly for those that are in two minds about getting one??

You've seen what some members are like...

 

[Roog]

Oh gosh do I! I seem to collect them.

My first one was given to me as a kid, it was an AVO Minor and I still have it velvet lined leather case an all. I don't use it because the crumbling rubber cables and bare metal croc clips which it came with as standard are an accident waiting to happen.
In addition to a growing collection of Digital Meters, I have recently bought a new moving coil meter just because they are handy to see what is going on when the voltage fluctuates, it also has a handy center weighted scale option for + & - swings! Long live the analogue meter.

I should point at that the Pro'sKit meter is quite cheaply made.

I certainly have - just look how pedantic they've been about the precise wording of the question 😆

There I was thinking yes or no would cover it.
(I sort of knew it wouldn't 😉)

I've published only one poll on this site, I learnt my lesson...

Yep my late father in-law's haven't got a clue how to work it, or even if it works now. Inherited all his tools some are that old I'm sure Noah used them.

That Avo was a great gift for a kid 👍

I had to buy my own first one, 45 years ago.
Not sure how I scraped together£16.95 in 1979 🤑 (I have trouble now).

Similar to your ProsKit, it had the 1000 volt terminals 😱
But at least your terminal metal wasn't as exposed).
I used to work at Maplin - so saw a few of those small multimeter models that looked as if they'd come out of a Christmas cracker.

 

[Al ears]

Got my first one to check continuity in 48 pin cables, that was fun...... Not!

My first MM was an analogue shocker (pun intended) from our small local hardware store.

Looked at Fluke, saw the prices and settled on this.

Flukes are the dogs nuts but pricey....
