Please keep this one bumped as every techie needs a nice meter. Thanks!

The current sale continues thru Saturday 01/27/07. It is a kit that contains the 82140 meter and an AC detector. Here is the Link to it.

Link fixed thanks to the 'midless1' and thanks for the bump.
---------------------------------------

If you want a top line product here's the word from Delbert (thanks):

I picked up a Craftsman 81437 from sears about two months ago for like $29. After I bought it I discovered it was a rebadged Fluke 17B. with a couple missing buttons.

-------------------------------

This is the Clearance model that may still be in some stores:
It is the same as the one in this eBay listing 82082:
And here is a small pic I googled from the Sears site.

-----------------------------

I bought a similar one a month ago (has part number 82141 on it) and it got the same exact readings as my 20+ year old Micronta - YVMV (your voltage may vary) 😉 . Coincidence? The leads that came with it are pretty nice too - YLMV. All I see it now is as part of a kit with an AC voltage detector for $25. w/ free shipping.

---------------------------------------

And bgmicro always has a good selection at low prices.



Good hunting and enjoy!

Zepper,

This thread is months old. If they are running the same deal, again, please just post a new thread instead of bumping your old ones. Reading through old posts wastes a lot of time, and it is not very informative.

Thank you for understanding.

Nice. I believe there's a Sears in this tiny college town... might have to check if they have this item and that it's clearanced. I've been wanting a DMM lately. Another co-op last semester was big into hobby and electronic projects, he said a simple Sears/Craftsman one similar to this suited him just fine.
 
Assuming my local Sears has this at the clearance price which would be a rarity, I will have to pick this up. Doesn't look like I'll be getting my free multimeter from one of the free sign up deals I found here a while back so this would definitely fit the bill.
 
It was out of stock in Keene, NH, but they kept me waiting so long, seeing if more were "upstairs," that they gave me the next higher model ($29.99 reg price) fof $9.99. Sweet.
 
I wonder how accurate these things are? The product specs are not working...it is just loading forever.
The el-cheapo DMM I saw at some store for same price was +-4% which sucks!

I am looking at the box right now:

Basic Accuracy VDC: +/- 0.5%
 
I checked my 82141's manual and it says:
DC volts - +/- 0.5% +2 digits
AC volts - +/- 1.5% +5 digits
Resistance - up to 200kOhm - +/-0.8% +2 digits the highest scale is +/- 1% +2 digits
Other scales vary from 1.2% to 3% (high AC Current) and +2 to +5 digits.
