[Solved] Recommended Multimeter: Up to 1000V DC/750V AC, Large Measurement Range,

Question 1

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]

Question 2

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]

Question 3

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]

Question 4

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]

Question 5

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]

Question 6

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]

Question 7

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]

Question 8

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]

Question 9

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]

Question 10

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]

Question 11

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]

Question 12

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]
