Very impressed with that shelf shot at the start the video.
Aww shucks.. well if I recall you have some great gear yourself Derek. 😀👍
Hi. I was expecting you to be releasing a video this day!
Here ya go 👍
What a dog. I can't recall a meter that does 10A that didn't include a fuse. Thanks for the review as I'm sure it was painful to do.
hi darren, how about you if you choose aneng series m118 a or aneng m167 ??
i am confuse for choose it ..
thanks
Hello Fahfa, I preferred the M118A 😃👍
@@KeepOnTesting okay, thnks for advice, Darren🙏👍🏼
Hi Darren.. thks for the upload.. what's the minimum current that can measure? Is it 200mA, meaning if current less than 200ma i.e 10mA cannot measure? I plan to use it to measure parasitic drain for my car..which is in the range of 20mA to 60 mA DC..
Hi there ! It should be able to measure from 10mA -200mA ,so you should be fine. 🙂 👍
@@KeepOnTesting Thanks so much
Hey Darren,
If I ask you what brand of multimeters are better among Hioki, Sanwa, and Kyoritsu, what will you say?
sanwa
Sanwa, Hioki and Kyoritsu ..in that order. 👍
@@KeepOnTesting thanks
@@arnavkatyal2698 thanks
Another citizen of the cheapo Nation!!! Funny video thanks Darren Happy saturday!
Thx Wlad! 👍 Happy Weekend 😀
Hi Darren I think you expected too much at this price range but you are also right that there are other multimeters that can perform better than this at the same price range. but the absence of fuse protection is unacceptable. even a 3 dollar meter at least have one. Btw my HT118a is on the way and I cant wait to test it 😊
You're going to love that HT118A 👍
For how much did you get HT118A?
@@bhushan9066 Around 28 dollars
You do know your Amazon rechargeable batteries are 1.2V each not 1.5v as in normal batteries right? This affects electronics, especially flash used for photography.
Man I get strong dankpods vibes from you
On these really cheap ones it wouldn't hurt to check their input impedance with another meter. We expect 10Meg but some are less. The Harbor Freight was 1 Meg.
Good point 👉 I'll add that to the CHEAP-O repertoire in the future 😉 👍
@@KeepOnTesting 10 Meg is pretty inherently safe, even without PTC's and the like.
For the price, I would have expected much better probes and diode test. The continuity is so slow you could easily miss a short. The price is right on the edge where I expect capacitance. So yeah, I agree hard pass on this.
You paid $25 Canadian?
I paid under $4 USian.
NCV does not work at face of the socket, but detects along the wire, even USB wire.
All seems to work ok enough, for when I need quick and ok enough ;)
Great price..always more expensive when it's initially released 😅
"the pull test" 😂 that's a good one.
I wonder why do they bother building this things anyway. Who would buy this?
Ohh man that Sanwa...I love that meter!
That pull test takes no prisoner's 🥴👍Sanwa makes some great gear that's for sure.
Hello Darren. You are a generous person)) I would rate such a multimeter 1.5 out of 5.
Great video. Thank you.
Thx Vitali...1.5 🌟 seems better in retrospect👍
Where do you get all these Cheesy meters, Wisconsin-??? lol All those nameless meters, were reduced to "mystery meter" status--lol
Wisconsin...yea Mike..you need a dairy state for this amount of cheese! Seems like Aneng loves dairy 😀👍
Looks very fine wired
Sometimes cheapos offer a conscious compromise between what you want and what you're willing to pay for it. But in this particular case, I have no idea on how to possibly use this thing aside from a paperweight.
It has only 6 modes and it's not particularly good at any of them. 4000 count and TRMS are nothing more but a marketing labels on a meter like this. Continuity is painfully slow, as expected. Build quality and test leads are akin to the cheapest cheapos. Aneng itself has better models in this price range, not to mention other manufacturers. I’m not sure why would they want to affiliate their brand with it.
As for this week's vent, I think Thsinde is still my favorite name. Sounds like someone came up with it while sneezing. 🙂
Haha..Thsinde..how did I miss that one!! 😁
Sad part about this dmm is that you can't even use it as a paperweight ...it weighs nothing!🥴
@@KeepOnTesting "you can't even use it as a paperweight" - For some reason that really cracked me up. 😀
I'll start by saying you paid waaaaay too much. When my venerable & much abused analogue TVM died a couple of years ago I bought an M118A to replace it and I like it a lot so when I saw them on the Aliexpress Singles day sale for only $8.82 CAD (regular price $14.49) with free shipping I bought another for when I need a 2nd meter.
Then I saw the M167 for $6.32 CAD (regular $11.96) with free shipping I figured I could hardly go wrong buying one of them too. It looks like they listened to videos like yours because the protective film was on the outside and easy to peel off. They seem to be aware of the lack of protection too because it came with a sticker over the amps plug that says "⚠STOP TESTING VOLTAGE IN CURRENT MODE" 😱 as well as a warning in the clearly written (if somewhat minimal) English manual.
I expect this will be fine for a secondary meter on my very crowded bench. It certainly looks better made than the $5 special from Canadian Tire that lives in the tool box I take to model train shows.
Interesting. UA-cam told me you posted a reply but when I came to reply it isn't here.
It costed me less then 4 euros so i ám happy with it
these meters are getting so small I keep wondering how long its gonna be before were all wearing meter implants-? Well have to "Jack in" same as they did in the Matrix movies--lol
I heard rumours they will start injecting them soon. 😉
Sometimes indeed you have to wonder why some models are actually being put on the market as someone else already stated. Especially from a brand like Aneng who has dozens and dozens of other models who all outperform this poor excuse and are sometimes even cheaper.
Aesthetically it's awful, thanks for taking the bullet for us 😀
No worries Shaun..another one bites the dust! Aneng has really put out some trash recently...🥴
Capacitor not read uf n m
Ahh...no it does not read Capacitance (uF).
3:56 Seen a lot of DMMs displaying a bit different than 5.000V. This one is an exception.
And that's because (its obvious) its displaying 4.992V!
@@arnavkatyal2698 😁👍
Agree, not worth the money. 😓
Nope..no matter how much..
A big fizzle with no sizzle! ☹️
Definitely no sizzle...Spot on Radiogeek 👍
So Poor, they're basically Looting! 😐
Yea..almost...😀

Not worth it 🥴👍
@@KeepOnTesting 😂😂😂🤪🤪
It seem that it has (up to) 6000 counts? But anyway.. I won't buy it.
