Triplett 2030 Pocket-Sized 4000 Count Digital Multimeter - AC/DC Voltage, AC/DC Current, Resistance, Frequency, Capacitance, Continuity, and Diode Check

Great value for the money. Very rugged units, owned two of this meters for several years and have used them on my electronic projects, automotive, etc.

This MM200 is very accurate and easy to use. However ! ! the backlit display disappears when viewed at a slight down angle. Looking straight on and and up at the display is ok, And is difficult to see outside. The MM200 would make a nice bench meter, but Not a good outside meter.

I needed a compact meter to use in an industrial environment. I wanted something to keep with me in my small tool pouch to avoid trips across the plant to grab a meter for something simple so I decided to try this one. It's hard to believe that I've had it for 10 months now especially since I was skeptical about the thin lead wires but I haven't had any problems yet. I use it mostly for checking resistance and voltage up to 480vac. If fluke or amprobe made something similar then I would have bought it but I'm glad I found this one. If it dies tomorrow then I would definitely buy a new one, actually if I only got six months out of it then I would still buy another one because the use I got out of it far surpasses the amount of time I've had it. The only issue I have had would be with the leads. I do get a little paranoid when checking for 480 with leads that look like they could break easily but I also check them every now and then. Also the storage for the leads is an extra step when getting out your meter because you have to flip the tab on top and sometimes they don't come out easily. For me though this is a small price to pay for a meter that I can have on me at all times without even knowing it's there.

Simple and easy to use, didn't need all those gadgets

My Dad dearly loved his little model 310 and so that is why I bought this one. Very happy with this one. Easy to read and accurate.

At this price range, most of these irritations are expected.The casing is decent - even solid. Feels like it could take a couple of tumbles and keep on working. I bought this to throw in my backpack, so a few months should tell me worlds about its durability - I'm rough on my bag.There is a plastic bit hanging from a black nylon cord at the bottom of the unit that is only used when you want to stand the unit up. It's finicky to use, but works well enough once in place. I had a few "Dammit, stay put" moments.The Select, Range and Hold buttons feel like they are all soft keys, but work reliably with an audible tone to let you know you've made a selection. There are separate spots on the Dial for Volts AC and Volts DC, but you have to use the Select button on mA and uA settings to pick DC or AC measurements. The LCD has a spot to indicate if you are AC, but it is blank for DC. Also - the indicator is very small - but more on that in the display section.The selector Dial has solid positive clicks, but there is an unused spot between Off and mA with no option. Not a big deal, but if you were going from Off to mA and the display was blank, it might take a few seconds to realize you had another click to go. I'm not sure if this spot draws more current than the off position at this time.The probes are okay. The points were relatively sharp and the cable rating is present on the wire sheathing. The holder for the tips is almost thought out well. The retaining clip at the top rotates to let out/in the probes, but the tips can slip behind the catch and then its fun digging them out. I wish there was a bit more cable length.The Display is ok at best. The contrast is sufficient for the digit read out, but the units are just horribly small. The digits update a few times a second and it gets to a reading fairly quickly. It's definitely slower than my EXTECH 330, but with good contact the readings to stabilize nicely. I only tested on a AAA battery and some resistors on a breadboard I had in my bag, so I didn't use all the ranges but the resistors read correctly in Ohms. I just wish it was bigger display - there appears to be room for it anyways.One thing that was just not reliably working at all was the continuity checker. It sucks bad. I could hold the leads together and this horrible scratchy noise of a non-latching check sputtered out occasionally, but not always.I would have given more stars for a better display, a working continuity check, and better design of the leads. I would prefer separate leads, but for these units it's not uncommon to have them permanently installed.TL;DR - Good protective casing and overall functional meter with a junky continuity checker and somewhat difficult to read display.

I got taken by what people were saying in the reviews only to fine out they were talking about another model number. I bought the Triplett Pocket-Sized CAT II 4000 and thought (based on other peoples reviews) that I was getting alligator clips that clipped onto the test leads and thought for sure I was getting a display that was back light. NO NO NO that's a totally different model. The Triplett Pocket-Sized CAT II 4000 is "bare boned". U get nothing with it but testleads and a flip cover. It does fit into ur pants pocket not ur shirt pocket which is what I was looking for. NO back lit display (dummer) so u cant see it when ur in dark spaces (dummer). The display looks big but the actual numeric display (which is the important readable digits) is half the size of the overall display. U get less then what u pay for and expect sorry 2 say. I was hoping for more. It does cost more then other "bare boned" VOM's so I was actually expecting more. I'm still debating weather to keep it of return it because it does have a nicer case then other "bare boned" VOM's. I'll sleep on it and decide tomorrow I guess.Dave C. Stout

I have had one of these Triplett 2030-C DMMs for a few years now, and I am very happy with it. I just ordered a second one for another toolbox. The case is excellent -- it protects the display, the probes and wires tuck easily into the case, and it can be latched open to act as a stand.The only thing that would make it better is a display backlight.

Put batterie in and turned on worked tried and didn't get proper readings it was all over the place, sent it back to bad liked the look.

vraiment un très bon produit qualité prix.
