I need to measure ohms down to 10k. will this meter do this?

I use it to detect bad magnatrons and transisters, and it will show a difference of 1 ohm, the only one I have that will go that low.

Mine measured 1000 ohms and are about 6" long - so 1 foot would likely read about 2000 ohms.

My advice is ring Fluke, if not, carry out your own question & see what happens, do what you're asking & the meter might likely go to some setting & never work again. My advice, don't play with things you know nothing about. CG

The input impedance of this meter is 10 meg ohms. It really is a great meter and I just love it. It outperforms some of my far more expensive meters, so I use it a lot. I have been using test equipment of all sorts for over 40 years and this is the best deal on a quality meter I have ever gotten. Hope that helps.

Got this for Xmas Yesterday to measure speaker ohm's. it say to shot the two prongs together to read 0... Not on mine, its says 1.1-1.3, So to me, its junk because i need to it measure 4ohm's and below. its going back!

I bought the meter to judge the level of lead-acid batteries, but since it is just a voltage meter, I'm not sure it would make any difference.

You will need to add a shunt for the amperage, but it should work. I would recommend encapsulating the back of the meter with clear epoxy to prevent damage from vibration.

I doubt it very much. The meter requires power from the USB charge port. If you removed the power from the charge port to see if there is a discharge, the meter would not be powered. Your best option would be to modify a USB cable and connect in a milli-ammeter

It'll measure up to 10 amps. Don't forget to plug the red volt meter wire into the current plug AND put it on the 10 amp range. If you get the wire polarity backwards, the volt meter will just show negative number. You won't blow anything up. However, do remember to move the red wire back to the voltage & resistance reading plug. Forget and you could have a problem the next time you try and read a voltage.Also be looking at the meter reading when you hook it up, if it goes over range disconnect immediately.

Don't know about ohms, i just plugged in the antenna they sent with it. Really long cord, drilled a little hole in the wall and plugged it in.

it does not measure 4-20 mA. I recommend use another meter available to measure mA

you would put the speaker in series to drop it down to 2 ohms if you parallel it it will come out to 8 ohms check with ohm meter if you don't believe

Not even sure what a kind of meter that is. Sorry. I will say you will be better off buying one of the better ( Higher priced) units. You can hook the sensors right on the wires inside the circuit box in the house. This one is cheap junk with no support and are not even sold by B&D; anymore.

It will test any insulation breakdown but, as others have said, is designed for motors. It will give you a range but you will have to interpret what it is telling you. The range values on the meter itself is based on a 240 volt motor. For testing home wire insulation its best to use a true "megger".

Yes. I'm a hitting and conditioning mechanic.I use it for low-voltage all the time. This is a good all-around meter.The only thing is getting accurate temperature Reading. It usually is it arranged between 3 or 4 degrees.

Yes. Switch to the R1 ohmmeter scale and apply red lead to the cathode of the diode and the black to the anode. For a good diode, the meter should indicate low resistance. Then reverse the meter leads and the meter should indicate very high resistance. If the diode shows either low or high resistance, regardless of the direction of the meter leads, it is faulty.

I have not had any problems with the meter, I am not sure what you are wanting to check the frequency of, but I use it on HVAC equipment and check frequency once in a while and it works for checking that.
