Sort by:

  1. Can this device be used to check car battery voltage?

    I want to check if my car starting problems are related to battery voltage and therefore need a device to check when this problem happens again.

    1. The Ironton Digital Pocket Multimeter is capable of checking a 12V car battery's Voltage.

      Helpful?

    2. the meter does have DC voltage test positions from 200 millivolts to 600 volts

      Helpful?

    3. Yes it will read your battery voltage, but an unloaded, dead car battery can still read 12 volts. A quick and easy test is to turn on the headlights while you take the reading. A battery in good condition and fully charged will read somewhere between 11.75 and 14 volts.

      Helpful?

    4. Yes sir it will check battery voltage. A great tester for the money.

      Helpful?

    5. Yes, the meter can measure DC voltage with range selections from 200mvdc to 600vdc.

      Helpful?

    6. Yes it can, Use the dc setting on 20 volts.

      Helpful?

    7. yes. it reads DC voltage.

      Helpful?

    8. Yes but volts only. It will not measure battery load !You can check circuit from battery to starter and beyond to actual ignition key using "continuity" setting.You should be looking for incomplete circuits.

      Helpful?

  2. does it come with the test leads?

    1. Yes nice long ones

      Helpful?

    2. Yes it has test leads

      Helpful?

    3. A red and black test lead about 39 inches long come with the meter.

      Helpful?

    4. it comes with a set of red and black test leads approximately four feet in length for item 43981

      Helpful?

    5. This pocket multimeter includes test leads.

      Helpful?

  3. Does this unit test for continuity, with a audio alert?

    1. yes there is a speaker setting on the main dial. It is not very loud but loud enough as long as there is not to much other noise.

      Helpful?

    2. The meter tests for continuity with a beeper.

      Helpful?

    3. yes it does have an audible tone when used on the continuity position

      Helpful?

    4. This multimeter will test for continuity with an audio alert.

      Helpful?

  4. Does this unit has self-zeroing resistance calibration (with the leads touched it reads 0 ohms)? Many cheap meters will still read a resitance.

    1. Reads 0 when leads are touched

      Helpful?

    2. The ohms scales zero themselves however the lowest range (200) will reflect the test lead resistance, usually under .5 ohms. All standard meters do this. If you're measuring this low and want high accuracy you need a special meter for low ohms.

      Helpful?

    3. This multimeter has an ohms accuracy of -/+ 1.0% and it is possible that it will not always read zero.

      Helpful?

  5. Does it come with an instruction manual?

    1. Yes this is a basic but good meter

      Helpful?

    2. Yes a small one.

      Helpful?

    3. A manual is included with the Ironton Digital Pocket Multimeter.

      Helpful?

  6. Can you change the fuse in this multimeter when it blows or is it soldered in?

    1. The fuse is in a holder and is replaceable as is the standard 9 volt battery.

      Helpful?

    2. This tool has a 500mA fuse. If the fuse blows, you can replace it by unscrewing the bolt on the housing.

      Helpful?

  7. Does this meter measure current (amps)?

    1. This meter can be used to measure DC amps only.

      Helpful?

    2. From the selections shown on the meter's dial, it appears that it will measure DC current only. Ranges include 200 micro-amps, 2 - 20 - 200 milli-amps and 10 amps (all shown in white letters on the right side of the dial).

      Helpful?

  8. I broke the red lead at the plug...can I get a replacement lead?
