Beautiful multimeter. You've really opened my eyes to SANWA brand..Thankyou!

@t.rwolfen2502 3 года назад

Great multimeter. Very fancy display. Thank you for the video.

@radius.indrawan 3 года назад

that cover/shell gives a confidence in durability-wise, it will protects the meter from some knocks and bumps inside your tool bag, keep the LCD scratch-free, and front face will always in mint condition, brilliant! btw, i think it could be used as "tilt stand" also if you rest the upper back of the meter on it while in use. 😁 great review Darren. can't wait for the upcoming reviews, i'm so excited. 😍

Sanwa got the backlight right with this CD800F. I hope they come out with a revamped CD770/771/772 mark 2 with this better backlight. Back to the CD800F, it uses AAA which is not my kind of power pack. That size should able to accommodate the cheaper and efficient AA. No fuses but I hope someone could mod one on that empty spot. Two stars to Sanwa I am afraid. Thank you for another good DMM review Darren!

@yambo59 3 года назад

Another good review. This unit really has a quality look to its build, that is one THICK PCB-! Continuity is one of the best ive ever seen, display is crisp and clean. Only negatives would be as you said the curiously low cap range depending on your purpose for the meter, a so-so ncv, and for some the non-detachable but very high quality leads along with one of the highest quality case moldings ive seen. But as you said to be fair this is a niche sort of dedicated purpose meter meant to be (almost) a pocket portable imo. Nice input protection and I like that they use a gas discharge tube, many makes wont use them as I understand they are a bit pricey(?) - But even in this small niche meter theres no denying the obvious Sanwa quality throughout.

@KeepOnTesting 3 года назад

I really enjoyed this dmm, you can tell alot of thought went into the design and build quality of this multimeter!

@yambo59 3 года назад

Yep, and if this is how they build the smaller ones I cant wait to see their upper tier offerings.

@@KeepOnTesting Hi do you think it's a proper CAT IV 1000V multimeter after looking at the teardown? i'm an idiot with electronics so i can't tell too much.

@KeepOnTesting Год назад

@@falkenvir Yes! Sanwa never states a CAT rating unless certified and tested so it's definitely CAT IV 1K.

@user-lo5mx4nv5r 3 года назад

Yoooooo yessss all I need now is a Japanese meter

@ericchang7706 3 года назад

I love it for what it is...a well-built, compact volt/resistance meter, which is what I need 99.8% of the time. I dislike how most DMMs deal with sharp, snag-prone probes when storing or moving, so the enclosed case is really appealing. It's pricey for something that isn't a full dmm replacement but I still want to own it because it would go everywhere with me.

@KeepOnTesting 3 года назад

Great feedback....indeed its such a "clean" looking package its impossible not to be impressed by the overall design.

Hey I needed one my multimeter was damaged please help 💯% honest review

@probang2866 3 года назад

In my opinion: Very nice DMM for automotive use. Nothing to worry about, if it´s tossed in a toolbox. It´s well protected and the probe wires are nowhere dangling around. Measurement of capacitance is anyways not a needed task in cars. In case of an emergency even the current can be calculated by (measured) resistance and voltage drop. But even this detailed review today left some questions over: 1. How long stays the BL on? 2. Frequency (upper) range? 2a. Works the freqency measurement only with a signal that crosses the zero Volt line (could be important for PWM signals)? 3. Up to which frequency is the True-RMS AC measurement accurate?

@KeepOnTesting 3 года назад

BL stays on for approx 30 seconds 100kHz (Frequency) Accuracy assured frequencies of the ACV are 45HZ to 500HZ (True RMS)

@probang2866 3 года назад

@@KeepOnTesting Thank You for your effort. Sad, that it has a "standard backlight". IMO: A BL that´s always on if activated (e.g. like the RuoShui 202 CHEAP-O DMM handles it) would be much more useful, especially for automotive purposes.

@kroenen6661 3 года назад

hello Darren, what happened to SANWA? I see that they discontinued this multimeter and the CD800b mm… i can barely find them anywhere to buy:(. did they discontinue these because they were bad or safety issues? anything you know about?

You don't have to remove the back cover or anything to install the strap. Just insert the strap directly through the line hole. Loop it in and buckle it up. You're done! 😊

@ruikazane5123 3 года назад

DC accuracy? Maybe your reference is not that accurate at all and it is showing...! There is a time when I hated the idea of a fixed test lead like a YX-360TR since there were a lot of times that the meter got off the table or bench or wall or some metal plate and was catched by the leads...sometime soon we had to replace them. That is just the concern, and it gives that meter you have the high category rating since connections are all encased. Finally, something made in China that does not look, feel or (hopefully) smell like one!

@deanagoes2791 3 года назад

@kundanlalahirwar3764 Год назад

Please tell us how to measure current by this multimeter

@KeepOnTesting Год назад

SANWA CD800F does not support current measurement. ACDC Volts only.

@sulebule1603 2 года назад

is this capable of measuring the heater voltage on a tube tv crt???

@KeepOnTesting 2 года назад

Yes, the low Voltages shouldn't be a problem 👍 even with the higher frequencies. All voltages except the filaments should be DC. You should have 6vac across the filiments (AC) because its at 15.7khz some multimeters will choke when trying to accurately measure AC at higher frequencys.

@nemanja7289 Год назад

Can I use this model to test battery in car and alternator?

@KeepOnTesting Год назад

Yes! Set the multimeter to DCV (VOLTS DC), Then attach positive lead to positive battery post (red) and negative lead to negative (black) battery post. You should see around 12.6V ..now start the engine..you should see around 14.2-14.7 ⚡️ volts on the multimeter. Anything over or under means alternator isn't working efficiently. Make sure to put a load on it..turn on lights accessories etc...it should not effect the reading significantly.👍

@bhushan9066 3 года назад

Resistance of the Test Leads, Poor in capacitance measurement, No stand at the back, oddly sized, No fuse, Single screw support for the entire body, Name sake NCV without filament, no current testing, etc. Which direction is Sanwa going to? Sanwa, are you hearing? 😐 ...

@KeepOnTesting 3 года назад

Its not the perfect multimeter but believe me its incredibly well put together and a joy to use...a tiny stand would have been a welcome addition or even a modular setup utilizing the back cover. Still, it's got alot of goodness and if I only had a few multimeters , this would be one of them.. 😄👍

No, not true. Definitely wrong. I have both model. CD800A is just basic, not "True RMS" and a lot cheaper. While CD800F has better functions and it's "True RMS".
