Matthew WesolowskiMatthew Wesolowski: What Upset me is I got a Kane multi meter and not a UEI and I don't like the interface or color of it, not to mention you can only take one different reading at a time and not multiple readings

Trevor Bartko: Very useful tool for diagnosing electrical issues. Have had no issues with either one I purchased (gave one to my coworker). Only wish it could do DC amperage (well, larger than DC micro-amps), but otherwise has everything I need in a voltmeter.

Christine: This was a replacement for a DL99 I have had for around 25 years. It has features that the 99 didn't have and so there is a bit of a learning curve to push the right buttons to get it in the right mode so don't lose the instructions. Only have had it less then a week but did check the accuracy against a couple of standards in a few of the modes and the accuracy seems to be within the published figures. It is a little lighter than the DL99 so I don't know if it as sturdy. Time will tell. There are some makes at 1/3 the price on the web but "you get what you pay for" Am satisfied with it.

Tony Turner: I had high hopes for this meter but fell way short! I'm an appliance repairman so I use my meter all day... Every day. Because of the way the function dial is made, it's almost impossible to select a function "one handed" and forget about changing it with gloves on. You have to roll the selector and it doesn't move easy. If you use two hands it's not bad but I seldom have that luxury.

Next is the temperature probe. It uses a standard K type thermistor but you have to have an adapter if you use anything other than the factory thermistor, which is a bit annoying. Also, the temperature is off by about 10 degrees with no way to calibrate it. I've tried several probes and 7 degrees off is as close as I can get... Totally unacceptable. How can I use it for HVAC when it's that far off. It's unusable!! And it makes me question every other reading I get.
This is not a cheap meter and for the same money you can get a professional meter that's accurate, reliable and smaller eg. Fieldpiece SC260.

Overall... Don't waste your money.

tommy declements: The dial is hard to turn compared to other UEI multimeter I have owned. The continuity beep is not automatic. You have to push a button to activate the sound. I do like the feature that the audible sounds is made if there is voltage on a wire rather than having to hold a button down like their other models. You can turn this feature on and the audible sound is made if there is power on The wire so you can go flip a breaker off and listen for the sound stop. Other meters you have to have someone holding the button and somebody flipping the breaker. Magnet on the back is very useful the hold the meter up insight for viewing. UEI is the only meter I use for HVAC.
