So you buy an inexpensive Voltage OHM Meter..
Ever wonder what happens if you test a few of them together for voltage accuracy..??

I bought this one at Harbor Freight last month:

AC/DC Digital Multimeter

It was $25 but the manager gave me a 20% off coupon, which was nice. It also has the leads to act as a temperature probe, which I plan to put to good use in the Jeep at some point. The manual was printed on a sheet of toilet paper with 4-point type, so it's a little hard to read. :icon_lol:

That is a very nice VOM there Prof! Does the Temp probe do hot dogs? :icon_lol:
Looks like yours also has the larger screen, I call them easy readers for the over 40 crowd. :gr_grin:
Feel free to Post your VOM's... old or new does not matter...
I bet there are some cool higher end ones out there as well! :party52:

I will try it on a hot dog and see. The screen is nice, and yes, I am over 40.

(The part of me which is over 40 is old enough to get a learner's permit and will have to register for the draft soon.) :happy175:
