KAIWEETS HT206D Digital Clamp Meter T-RMS 6000 Counts, Multimeter Voltage Tester Auto-ranging, Measures Current Voltage Temperature Capacitance Resistance Diodes Continuity Duty-Cycle (AC/DC Current)

Well this is amazing! For $29.99 I just received the best designed clamp meter that I've ever owned! First thing is that it defaults to DC volts when you put it to the volt position. Second thing is the screen is easy to read and with one button has a bright backlight. Third thing is I just timed the auto off function and it's about 20 minutes! It is so infuriating that all of these high-tech expensive voltmeters shut themselves off in about 2 or 3 minutes and I have to turn it back on again and while I'm using it. The most impressive feature is that it is a DC clamp meter as well as an AC clamp meter. This is very unusual. Almost all clamp meters are AC but in order to get a DC clamp meter you usually have to spend a lot more money. I also very much like the fact that the test leads plug into the bottom rather than the front. This allows you to store the cords in the case without having it take up space. It also has a small button on the right side to hold readings in case the meter is in a location you can't actually see the screen when you're taking a reading. Another unusual feature is that it does measure Hertz. Very impressed!

I've been using this for a few years now, and I really think it's a great deal for the price. Unlike my incredibly expensive fluke, this can measure current in mA. The only thing I don't like about it is that its refresh rate is slow. So for fast variations in voltage, like under a couple hundred ms, it won't pick those up. I'm not looking for millisecond accuracy, but in some cases the stuff I test will have short voltage variations that I just need to know are happening. For this I switch over to my fluke.

Broke down for me after few month of light use. Circular selector dial stopped working properly. It became very sensitive and sporadically turning device on and off. Also AMP meter started to show randomly wrong value. For example I would turn on AMP meter and it would show 7.5 amps even so it should be zero. I had to disassemble the device and check contacts responsible for circular dial. When I assembled device it started to work properly again.

Great value in an all-purpose meter. I regularly use the capacitance measurements. The temperature measurement, and most of the other functions. A big bonus would be if the LCD screen was bigger, but this unit is a great value!

Works great. Solid build. A must have for troubleshooting individual panels in a parallel solar array.

A great Multimeter, lots of useful functions. Ac/ Dc Amp Clamp is perfect for home or work. Ac for the house, Dc for cars, batteries, Solar Installation Testing.

This Kaiweets HT206D clamp multimeter is great - I love it. For $48 it is a best buy.{{It competes well with my several hundred dollars Fluke multimeter. My biggest issue with Fluke is their probes are outrageously priced, but their meters are excellent.}}I have tested all functions, and it works very well. The clamping ammeter is a real plus. This is now my go-to meter for everyday projects. I like the fact that it uses two AAA batteries. I hate rechargeable anything and avoid them like the plague they are –always discharged when you need them most and you need to wait to recharge them. Not this meter – just slip in two new AAA batteries and you are good to go.Half the leads (mainly the fine pointed ones) that come with the meter, however, are crap and so is the optional Kaiweets 23-piece multimeter test lead kit. These have connectivity issues with either high ohms or ohms that continuously jump all over the place. They are held in place via a crimp and the conductivity is awful.The Kaiweets vendor replaced the 23-piece kit for me, but the replacement had the same conductivity issues.Save yourself time and aggravation, get a good lead set for this. I wasted a few weeks thinking the meter was bad when it was bad probes.These are the probes I ultimately settled on as excellent for this Kaiweets clamping multimeter: the Snakol 22-Piece Multimeter Test Lead Kit and the Bionso 25-Piece Multimeter Leads Kit - both at about the same price as the malfunctioning Kaiweets test probe kit. The main difference is the Snakol has longer probe handles which I like. I am using both sets, however.All the probes in these two sets have great conductivity and no issues and they fit the Kaiweets HT206D clamp multimeter. They give stable readings of 0-to-0.1-ohms.The main issue with these, however, is the probes need to be screwed into place with a wrench or needle nose pliers making changing probes more difficult. On the other hand, this is likely why they give such good conductivity. However, you can buy multiple sets so you can permanently set up the probes you use most frequently. Some of the other probes in the set are the plug-in type so they be changed easily and these have excellent conductivity as well. I find these two kits give me all the probes I need and more.

Solid build and pretty easy to use. Got it for the clamp amperage which works well. Although it is auto-ranging, it initiates clamp current mode in DC where, at least for me, the normal measurements are AC. Not hard to change the selection, but it seems like the wrong default mode. Likewise, for measuring voltage, one needs to cycle between DC, AC and HZ by pushing a button. Pay attention to the mode, otherwise you'll not be getting the measurements you expect. I recommend it though - it does do a lot of different measurements, and it's a good versatile tool for home repairs.
