HI Eddie, thank you for an awesome comparison video. Nice shirt and supporting your brother-in-law.

Excellent video. Thank you so much! I was looking for a meter for myself and couldn't decide until I've seen your review. You've covered all the details in this video and in the other one about the HT208D too. All the features were explained and tested and no shortcuts were taken. I decided to buy this HT208D thanks to you.

A significant improvement in the 208 from the 206 is the addition of a range hold feature. That allows min max readings to be made which will just over range on the 206. Also makes for much quicker measurements when doing a repeated series of measurements in the same range. Gets annoying waiting with the auto range lag each time you connect up, when you have no option to select a fixed range. Aside from the display, which is better on the 206 series, and maybe the larger size, the added value from the 208 is definitely worth the extra cost. Better probes, higher speed, range lock etc make it fully capable. On the 208D that I've got, the DCV accuracy was surprisingly on the mark, with a 0.006% error measured through a range from zero to 110V. Only real complaint I could come up with is the min max feature doesn't have a display for the ongoing readings; it can only display the min or the max. If you want to use the mode to continually monitor voltages while just catching any spikes that it comes across, it can't do that. I was surprised they forgot to include that, with every other thing about it so well done. Well, maybe also the display, which is actually a downside compared to the traditional LCD display. The reverse display is pretty hard to read in sunlight without a lot of hand shielding and fussing about getting the right angle on it. If they stuck with the old 206 display type and just ditched the timeout on the backlight, it'd be aces 👍.

Well all the promo codes were used up. I do love Kaiweets products. Their products feel well-built. I just moved and have been using my Kaiweets outlet tester to make sure everything is wired in correctly, and it works great.

@KissAnalog 3 года назад

Thanks for letting me know. I will check with Kaiweets to see if there was a problem. I’d be surprised if people actually used them that fast. I can’t even get that many responses when I give meters away - let alone when I make it a challenge;) I usually have to wait several weeks to get a few emails asking for the free meter. And I don’t usually get spikes like that at Amazon. This would be a first;) I’ll check and get back, plus I think that they were giving me new codes for cases.

@alexivanov2891 Год назад

Thanks for great review, I've found many answers. 16:08 The cheapest HT200B turned to be fastest and most accurate at low AC currents. It is the only measured exactly 0.266A same as reference multimeter without any delay. Priceless feature for Differential Current Protection unit testing and especially AC-leak identifying and troubleshooting. Next in line is HT206B which adds 6000 counts, MIN button, LoZ, LPF and USELESS temperature measurenent (BTW who ever use it ???)

@Onkel.Moetrik Год назад

Hi Eddy Is it possible that you can test the amp function on the 206? In the low DC region. I have the Habotest 206D, and when I use the clamp in DC mode, it is far out! The accuracy is way off. When the load is 1.7 amp the clamp measure about half. This should be a lot better I have another Noname clamp meter, a bigger one, and this one measure all right even in the low region. I suspect that the challenge for these meters are in the low region, DC. I guess they are not really made for this? Onkel Møtrik

@KissAnalog 9 месяцев назад

Great question! Many of these are rated to read very high current, so the low range is like 60 Amps. This makes for poor resolution at smaller currents. The question is - how small? There is also a technique to get a better reading. I showed this in an earlier video - but I can't even remember which one it was;) I'll do a video this weekend to show this;)

@TYGAMatt 3 года назад

Off topic for a sec. Thinking of pulling the trigger on a Hantek CC-65, but a little worried about the frequency limit. Thoughts? Maybe the CC-650 is a better choice? Budget is not huge. Or any other suggestion?

@KissAnalog 3 года назад

Great question! Between the CC-65 and CC-650, I think it is a choice of current ranges and what you need there. I chose the CC-65 thinking that I don't need the higher current and I wanted better low current readings, and I thought 20kHz was not bad for the low cost. Have you watched my vids on the CC-65? What freq range do you want? The Micsig is more expensive but a very nice and wide bandwidth probe. Here's the link the the video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rC-S8WdfW0g.html CC-65 link:amzn.to/3wB5Yuz Micsig CP2100B link: amzn.to/3wDf4qu Micsig CP2100A (lower cost but 800kHz): amzn.to/3euEj8z Let me know if you have any more questions and which you decide on;)

@TYGAMatt 3 года назад

@@KissAnalog Hi Eddie. Thanks for the links. Yes I've seen your vid on the CC-65. I'm looking to probe on dc to dc converters as they're fascinating, but the step up I just made (first ever successful boost converter) is running at 100kHz, so maybe too much for accurate readings in the CC-65. I'll have a rethink. Maybe I'll just have to string a yarn to the wife that I needed both in the interests of saving the world from climate change.... Or something like that! ;-)

@TYGAMatt 3 года назад

Hantek cc-65 just arrived. Excited to try it out when I get a moment

@ats89117 3 года назад

I purchased the HT208A just for the $29.28 delivered price, but since I do a lot of audio work, I'm always interested in a current clamp's frequency range. Most are only for line frequencies. I've purchased some Micsig current clamp units for high frequency work and I'm guessing that the Kaiweets won't go up very far, but for $29.28 it will still come in handy.

@KissAnalog 3 года назад

Wow great price! That Micsig is a great higher freq probe. The Kaiweets will be great for line powered projects!

@bobomomo3764 2 года назад

@KissAnalog Год назад

Thanks so much! The problem with most current clamp type multimeters is that they are meant for 60/50 Hz power system measurements. You can get a relatively inexpensive current clamp that will work with your multimeter - given it will read the higher frequencies. Here's a video on teh clamp: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XCboJngcR6U.html A relatively low cost but high-end multimeter that can do this would be what I show here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YHuy2PYNq68.html

@hullinstruments 3 года назад

Quick question… are most of the modern budget multimeters made by the same manufacturer? And then stamped with a different brand names? Because I’v noticed There are many meters, from a wide range of brands… But many of them look identical. Why is that? There are dozens and dozens of models with many different brand names, and many look identical. For example, the Aneng ST209 is identical to…. -mustool X1 - winapex 8202 And others Other brands included including kaiweets, bside, uni-t, habotest, voltcraft, and others. Wondering if anyone can shed light on this topic, and verify if they’re all made by the same manufacturer, with varying levels of quality control?

@KissAnalog 3 года назад

This is a great question, and it would be awesome to see some answers to this. I can tell you that it is not just the lower cost units that are rebadged. I have a Tektronix power supply that is made by GWInstek. It goes even further than that as some manufacturers will have their high-end equipment made in the US and their (what should be low cost) lower end units made in China or other countries. Not saying any of this is bad - if the cost savings is passed on to the customers. I do think that Habotest might be the manufacturer of the Kaiweets multimeters. Power supplies are probably made by someone else. I think with Kaiweets, they have a name and sell a lot of equipment, so they have to keep a level of quality to keep the level of expectation for the cost a plus for the consumer - or they will be replaced by another brand. But they seem to be doing a good job.

@wingerrrrrrrrr 2 года назад

@@KissAnalog if there's additional screening by Kaiweets with a warranty period, it might be a good consideration for any price difference with Habotest, if they are sold without warranty support.
