Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good for the price
I haven't used the metre much, so cannot attest to its long term viability. So far, it has been fine.
I thought I had trouble with the unit, and sent it back to Kaito. The service folks were very helpful.
I believe my problem was in the manual that came with this DMM. It is exiguous, and that is being charitable. I would not be happy if I had paid what other on-line retailers are charging for this same metre.
I recommend this unit and the seller.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very Good Multimeter in good price
Product is good and robust also. Range check precision is also good. Working fine and supplied accessories are also of good quality.

It becomes difficult to read data during night or in low lighting as there is no backlit. This should have been provided as a defacto standard.

Only limitation I found is that capasitor value range check is very limited, not more than 10mF. This is really limitation, as you, usually and always deal with higher capacity condensors.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Mastech MY68 Multimeter
I ordered this meter after my old one (from Radio Shack),was ruined by leaking batteries. The meter is larger and heavier than the photo suggests. It's actually a two-part package.

I found the so-called instruction manual inadequate but usable. At first, I thought the meter was defective because I couldn't get a reading, but I found that once you ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great deal!!!
Seems very accurate so far. Build quality seems good. An amazing deal at this price. If I knew the quality would be this good, I probably would have went with the MY69 that has wider ranges for frequency and capacitance testing. Should still be a bargain at around $50.00



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - 1st year tech student, so no expert on these devices
Bought this for a basic electronics tech class at a CC. Required to be able to test for mAmps, which this does. I looked at specs and prices on Amazon and also company's site. Decided on this one because of price $25 + S&H, and specs.

When I received it, could see it was Ok, but not heavy duty. Is bare bones. No extra dials. The dial that changes the settings sounds & feels on the cheap side, a loud snap, not a reassuring soft one, but it may be sturdy. (Thus the 4 **** rating) ... Read More
