Any recommendations for digital multimeters? I've got an analogue one, but seeing the difference between 13.9 and 14.2 volts is pretty impossible.

Ta!
 
defo worth having a couple digital ones floating about, sooooo usefull!
but of corse.. it helps knowing what to use them on and how
 
2nd that! try ebay for used one can be refurbed if faulty had mine for at least 10yrs in workshop enviroments still going strong you get what you pay for!


A lot of the cheapo's are as accurate as my fluke these days, the technology moves on.
Have a look at CPC.co.uk, Tenma do a very useful digital clamp meter, you can use it as a normal ohm/volt meter but also with the clamp check current without the need to disconnect the battery. They also have a good range of cheap DVM's.
 
Go to Machine Mart and get a Clarke CA500 about £24.00 or a Lazer 1574 about £34.00.
 
Unless you get in-depth into electronics even a 5 quid digital one will do as long as it has Ohms, DC/AC Volts and DC Amps
 
I've got fine calibrated instruments costing hundreds, only difference between those and my pocket cheap as chips one is merely in the 0.01-5 error area, so don't spend a fortune unless you're a loaded perfectionist.
