Cheapo DMM |
|
|
I stopped by harbor Freight Tools last wk and bought a Cen-Tech DMm for
$3.99, which is even cheaper than the ones I got thru the mail. And
that's with a 9V battery. I like the separate on/off switch, because
you don't have to crank the rotary switch halfway around to turn it off.
I opened it up, and it's COB, really cheaply made. but the test leads
are bertter than the ones I got by mail, which had test leads that were
open - the wire was defective.
I found this auction on Ebay. He's probably going to Harbor Freight and
buying them for $3.99, and reselling them one Ebay for twice that.

They seem to be pretty accurate. I bought several last Christmas for
folks that never seem to have one. I also placed them wherever I might
likely need one.

They are great for what they are: kick around, who cares if
it drops out of the tree and busts, throw one in the tool box
or the glove box, meters. I bought some on sale for $2.99 (no
typo, *2*.99). On plain DC circuits they are fine, but don't
trust them with noisy DC. I run ~50 ns ~ +35 V pulses at about
1Khz into a car battery (used to start my generator). "Real"
meters see 13.8 V - the Harbor Freight sees ~ 19 volts. Haven't
noticed a problem on AC, ohms or current. They have a Hfe
position, which I haven't tried.
And it's a cheap source for a DPM.

Since they're COB, there's not much you can do to mod them. You can
take it out of the case and put it in a panel, or something like that.
Maybe use the LCD for another project. Oh, and if you need a pair of
test leads and a spare battery for your Fluke, you can't beat it. ;-)

I bought some of the earlier ones for $2.99 during a harbor
freight sale. They are pretty rugged and work well for most of my
needs. Would be good for classes or group projects (boy scouts,
robot clubs, etc) where each person could have their own meter.
The thing I miss is a beep function when checking continuity.
They have another version with the beep for a few dollars more.
I've see them sold on the net as high as $18.99. Google for 830b
meter. |

I've noticed that the HP 3478A bench DMM that I recently bought is
acting weird when I switch on a compact fluorescent desk lamp that sits
next to it. The DC range goes higher, especially at low DC voltages.
It's hard to tell, because it changes with where the test leads are,
etc. Some of it might even be coming from the lamp, back thru the power
strip, and into the DMM. All I know is that when I turn the lamp off,
it settles down and gives accurate readings. I may have to go back to a
regular blub. But I sure do like the desk lamp. It has two 13W "PL"
CFL tubes and puts out a lot of light. Only $25 at OSH. |

Some seller on Ebay sells them for really cheap, and then nicks you for
ten or fifteen bucks shipping. I've read some Ebay disclaimer that says
they get complaints about sellers that overcharge for shipping. But
they basically say buyer beware, take your biz elsewhere, they won't do
anything about it. One thing I noticed is that these cheap meters all
have AC ranges that go no lower than 200VAC. I wonder if that's because
they want to cut corners and save money on switches, etc, or if it's
because too many people put the meter on 120 or 240VAC and burn out the
lower ranges. |

Try putting it back into the 50Hz position, it is possible that there
is something wrong and an earlier tech "fixed" it that way.
As to eBay/Paypal and taxing shipping: logon, and vent your frustrations
in their direction. They want to do things correctly, but like everyone,
they make a mistake or two along the way. Sales tax rules differ from state
to state. Some require tax on services, some don't. They must have CA in
the wrong column. If you don't tell them, it might be a really long time
before they get it in the right column.

50mv AC to the reading.
On even the lowest DC range I notice no effect from draping the test
leads over the CFL.
I tend to use shielded test leads with my meters. The best
arrangement
I have found is a Pomona bananna plug to BNC adapter and a shielded
Pomona test
lead set with RG58 and a BNC connector on it. I have used the Pomona
shielded
test leads that go straight from the bananna plug to the coax to the
test
connectors, but I don't like them because the outer insulation on the
RG58
pulls away from the bakelite bananna plug, and reveals the shield.

The meters appear to be designed for beginner or casual users that
would have little or no use fro the lower ranges like the clamp on AC
Ammeters with a voltmeter function. As long as the HVAC guy or
electrician can read something close to 24 volts, they are happy with
the 200 volt range.

Many people get bit ONCE by the guys who clearly view "shipping and handling"
as a profit center, but after that people learn to read the sellers' policies
carefully! eBay certainly isn't the only place where this game goes on -- the
"New York mail order photo equipment" places were notoroius for years for
low-balling the advertised price of a camera and then charging you something
ridiculous in shipping.
On the other hand, some places go to the opposite extreme -- Amazon.Com has
"free" shipping on most orders over $25, but clearly they have to recover
those shipping costs somehow, right?
I think it would be hard to eBay to police this in an automated fashion --
with all the various shipping companies, insurance options, destinations,
etc., they'd almost have to employ a bunch of people whose sole job would be
to look at each and every auction and decide if the S&H was "reasonable."

I figured it was becasue they wanted to use things like silicon bridge
rectifiers and still be able to claim some reasonable percentage accuracy, but
I like your idea about people burning out the lower ranges even better.

For years, I read that Amazon's biz model was to gain market share by
cutting profits to the bone, in other words sell at a loss at times.
And with gas at $2.40 a gallon and rising, it seems to me that free
shipping is asking for trouble. It would make better economic sense to
have a shipping surcharge to pay for the rising fuel costs.

with all the various shipping companies, insurance options,
destinations,
etc., they'd almost have to employ a bunch of people whose sole job
would be
to look at each and every auction and decide if the S&H was
"reasonable." |
I've never sold, but it seems to me that if they required the seller to
fill out a form, with certain choices and/or dollar amounts, then it
would take care of the automation aspect.
Another consideration is that (at least within Calif), the less the
seller charges for the product and the more he charges for shipping, the
less the state makes in sales tax. So it would behoove the states to
make sure the sellers don't abuse this.
