    Almost any Brymen that fits in a total of PLN 400 will be good :)

    No offense, but the way of asking the question suggests that any one for the price of about PLN 30 is enough, e.g. DT-9205 If you want to additionally measure the temperature, then DT-9208 . https://abc-rc.pl/product-pol-7195-Miernik-Un...MImYHi0IfX6QIVQqwYCh0hCQE_EAQYASABEgKxNvD_BwE
    I've had the "eight" for several years and I'm happy with it.

    Recently I bought such a meter and I am very satisfied.

    This HP-770D may look unprofessional, but its capabilities are quite large, considering the price. I bought it in a store in England for less than PLN 280 and I don't think I overpaid. See what possibilities it has and make a decision. As a pensioner, I cut my teeth on various gauges starting from LAVO 1 and I liked this one. By the way, don't get into a discussion with lemmings - it's a waste of time.

    I won't start a new thread, so I'll post here:
    I have a Sanwa 5000A meter, I bought it used a few years ago, it worked flawlessly. He tinkers sometimes, so I used it to calibrate some voltage measurements carried out with the help of Arduino, I tested the load on the charger for my own production batteries, etc ... Recently, when the power supply to the house failed, after restoring, instead of 230V, it showed me 350V. I called the power company and they show 230V with their meter. I lost my meter, time is up. I am considering buying a Rigol-class oscilloscope and once I heard that a seller, along with his oscilloscope, also offered a relatively good quality meter at a good price.

    I am looking for a meter of a similar class, I care about the accuracy of the voltage reading (for measurements of a few V), automatic ranges, Auto-Off, if it had TrueRMS, and most importantly, that the measurements should be reliable. What would you recommend?
    APPA meters - are they good? I saw an interesting model somewhere? And Unit-T? I considered this model with an 81C oscilloscope.

    I also assumed the purchase of some simple model, with basic measurements, but it must have automatic ranges. Or buy anything for PLN 50 to have and calmly wonder what and where to buy? I planned to buy the Oscioscope itself in late autumn, but if there was an opportunity for some promotions, you can now. ;-)

    If you don't have high needs, maybe think about something like ZT301/ZT302/AN8008. When it comes to accuracy, they are more than good, but of course they only have 4 digits. They are cheap for that.

    Browse through the rich offer from BRYMEN. You will definitely find something at this price.

FAQ

TL;DR: Under PLN 400, "Almost any Brymen ... will be good." Concrete stat: 400 PLN budget. This FAQ shows models, features, and buying tips. [Elektroda, zdzisiek1979, post #18724387]

Quick Facts

What’s the best multimeter under PLN 400 for high-voltage ranges?

Consider the Sanwa CD772. A forum user bought it from NDN for about PLN 400. It is not Chinese. It includes True RMS, 1000 V AC/DC, auto-ranging, and useful capacitance measurement. The owner reported satisfaction in regular use. [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #18745677]

Are Brymen meters a safe bet around PLN 400?

Yes. One experienced commenter said, "Almost any Brymen that fits in a total of PLN 400 will be good." Brymen models in this bracket are widely trusted by users in the thread. Start with entry Brymen models that meet your needed ranges. [Elektroda, zdzisiek1979, post #18724387]

Which Brymen model offers tighter resistance accuracy?

Check the Brymen BM811S. The "S" suffix matters for spec differences. A user highlighted 0.1% resistance tolerance and advised, "pay attention to the S." Verify the exact variant before purchase to match your accuracy needs. [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #18725546]

Is Brymen a Chinese brand?

No. A participant clarified that Brymen is not Chinese. If origin matters to you, this aligns with buyers who prefer non‑Chinese instruments in this budget. [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #18768114]

I need something under PLN 300. Any solid pick?

Look at the HP-770D. A veteran user bought it for "less than PLN 280" in the UK and praised its capabilities for the price. The design looks simple, but features are generous. This is a strong budget alternative. [Elektroda, klamot, post #18724678]

Are very cheap DT‑9205 or DT‑9208 meters enough for basic use?

Yes, for simple tasks. One user suggested models near PLN 30, like DT‑9205. They added that DT‑9208 includes temperature measurement. They used the "eight" for years and were satisfied. These are fine for light, non‑critical work. [Elektroda, vodiczka, post #18724392]

What budget meters balance accuracy and price for electronics work?

Consider ZT301, ZT302, or AN8008. They are affordable and accurate enough for many tasks. Note they "only have 4 digits," so resolution is limited compared with higher‑end meters. For hobby projects, this is often sufficient. [Elektroda, spy, post #18780102]

My meter showed 350V after a power outage—how do I verify it?

A user saw 350 V while the utility measured 230 V. Try this: 1. Cross‑check with another trusted meter. 2. Measure a known reference (e.g., a fresh 9 V battery). 3. Inspect meter battery and fuses, then re-test mains. If readings disagree, retire or service the meter. [Elektroda, JanuszKornas, post #18775371]

Do I need True RMS for household or charger testing?

If you want True RMS capability, pick a model that has it. The Sanwa CD772 includes True RMS and 1000 V AC/DC, making it versatile for mixed signals. As one owner noted, "it has True RMS, AC/DC 1000V." [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #18745677]

What resolution is enough to calibrate Arduino‑level voltages?

For voltages of a few volts, 4‑digit meters like ZT301/ZT302/AN8008 can be accurate and cost‑effective. They trade ultimate resolution for value, which suits many hobby calibration tasks. If you need more digits, step up in class. [Elektroda, spy, post #18780102]

Any pitfalls with model suffixes and variants?

Yes. For Brymen, suffixes indicate different specs. With BM811S, the "S" is important for the quoted accuracy. Confirm the exact lettered variant before buying to avoid mismatched performance. "Pay attention to the S." [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #18725546]

Where did users buy Sanwa CD772 and what did it cost?

One user bought the Sanwa CD772 from NDN. Total cost was about PLN 400 including shipping. They emphasized that it is not Chinese and were happy with performance and features. [Elektroda, Anonymous, post #18745677]

Did the original poster find a solution?

Yes. The OP confirmed they purchased a meter based on the recommendations shared in the thread. This indicates the advice met their requirements and budget. [Elektroda, Arczi8987, post #18805015]
