This DMM, or all Sanwa instruments, had been so hard to find a "distributer" or any honest "seller" in the USA, I'd finally given up a couple of years ago. I ALMOST got scammed couple of times on "desperation purchases" from who knows I was communicating with. Congratulations to Sanwa-America on the recent start-up operation and this Channel's debut of the "new" company.

Gorgeous Sanwa meter there Darren, with a price tag to match. It's nice to see something of higher quality. Gotta love the extra resolution. If you cross your regular probes during temperature measuring you'll get the ambient temperature. Works with most meters should work with this one too. Love your reviews, Darren!

@radius.indrawan Год назад

wow.... this PC7000 is the real deal !!! yes, diode mode has room for improvements : higher output voltage for testing LED, diode beep and continuity beep if shorted. hope Sanwa read this. finger crossed. 😁 edit : saw the popular CD800a at the poster. Do you have it for review in this Sanwa week, Darren?

I will do a segment on the software alone. Promise !

@probang2866 Год назад

This DMM is practically a Brymen 867S. With some, at least in my opinion, important differences: The Brymen has a higher safety-rating of CAT IV 1000 Volt (SANWA CAT III 600 Volt). Brymen´s safety-rating is independent certified (UL listed). The Brymen 867S is cheaper. Even the more precise Brymen 869S is cheaper. The functionality is identical (even the 50000/500000 counts) to this SANWA PC7000. The housing of this SANWA was simply redesigned. But even the port for the optical USB connection seems to be identical. So, what is the point to buy a PC7000?

@shaunmorrissey7313 Год назад

Wash your mouth out with soapy water and go and sand at the back of the room😀

@TheGrantourismo Год назад

The only thing I found superior in Sanwa is much better rotary selector (based on my Sanwas and Brymens).

@Nixxx2000 Год назад

Looks like Sanwa has lower bandwidth then Brymen 869s

@KaMyKaZii Год назад

Darren, I would like to ask you to review the Tasi TA801C multimeter. For me, it's perfect for electronics beginners with great value for money. It is very cheap, has automatic scales, 9999 counts, very responsive continuity test with loud sound and visual indicator and has diode test with 3.2V output. I think it's unfair that practically no youtuber has reviewed this multimeter that could be great for many people. Thank you very much!

@KeepOnTesting Год назад

Done ! 👍 on my TODO

@three-phase562 Год назад

Very capable meter, it does seem good value for money although availability is pretty poor in the UK as far as I can see. Impressive input protection built in on a separate board, that is better than some claiming CAT IV 600V. I wouldn't mind getting hold of some of their insulation testers to review. Thanks for another great review.

@TheGrantourismo Год назад

Original Brymen 869 (which this Sanwa is based on) is cheaper and more feature-rich.

@three-phase562 Год назад

@@TheGrantourismo Thanks for the info, didn't know these were based on Brymen instruments. I find Brymen are good quality and we have a UK distributor for them. I have their 877 Insulation multimeter, but Brymen don't make dedicated insulation testers, which is where my interest lies.

@yambo59 Год назад

Now this is one seriously feature packed high quality multimeter - and it should be for around $450 - but the best of anything is never cheap. The meter itself lives up to its reputation and price class, and just my opinion but as already mentioned for this kind of price the PC cable and software should be included along with a fully functional diode range and a stay on back light, especially using a nine volt battery. It must be said as with other Sanwa gear this is a very high quality instrument with a 500,000 count display that will read way down in the weeds with a nS range, something very few handheld meters have. All else aside, its one of the best in its class -

@KeepOnTesting Год назад

Couldn't agree with you more Mike! Definitely worth the price of admission.

@joey24698 Год назад

$450 for this, really? how do you figure that? made in china not japan and its simply a rebadged Breymen and it looks like it uses the old Breymen chip set at that

@mikrotech3103 Год назад

The Features provided in this Multimeters are exactly matching with the Brymen 869S excluding the two thermocouple inputs which is possible in bm869s nd the Silicon test probes plus the 2 Bussman fuses And sanwa 7000 is much more costly than the bm869s. No reason to buy this when there is already a cheap alternative

@ssalient Год назад

That’s what I thought too. A lot of Brymen vibe. The “diod” designation, 500000 count mode, multiple pcb design, 4-20mA mode (the range selection in general)… it all breathes brymen, and that is not a bad thing!

@mikrotech3103 Год назад

@@ssalient I m pretty much sure that the pc com software used in sanwa may also work in Brymen 869s haven't tried it though but posibllity is higher. As the ckt boards look pretty much same.

@KeepOnTesting Год назад

The same chip is used in the Brymen 869s. I disagree about the cheap alternative, both are fairly close in price but I'll wager that Sanwa will still be going strong 30 years from now..

@TheGrantourismo Год назад

@@KeepOnTesting Yep, Sanwas have better build quality, especially rotary function switch.

@mrpetit2 Год назад

@@TheGrantourismo Joe Smith tested the BM869S rotary switch. It passed the 50.000 cycle test with ease, something the sanwa still has to prove. So Brymen's are top notch in that regard. And of course the BM869S is better spec wise and has more functions. And the BM869s has rubber seals all around, something the Sanwa lacks. So no dust/moisture protection. I think the better build quality leans towards the Brymen in this case...

@Another8Years 7 месяцев назад

Spec-wise the Sanwa PC7000 is a Brymen BM867s with a few additions: - LPF (Brymen calls it VFD on the BM869s) - one temperature measurement (vs none on the BM867s and two on the BM869s) Brymen also increased the backlight timeout to more than 4 minutes (short backlights drive me nuts - 15 seconds is criminal). Brymen's PC comm software is a free download. But like Sanwa, you do have to buy the cable. I'm not sure, but I think there's a good possibility that Brymen's software and cable will work with the Sanwa PC7000. I must say, I like the look of the Sanwa better, but not enough to pay 50-100% more than the BM869s.

@KeepOnTesting 7 месяцев назад

Thanks for the update! Yes, the SANWA definitely does a great job aesthetically in comparison to the Brymen. Both super multimeters in their own right ✅️ Agreed, the miniscule backlight timeouts are soooo aggravating 🙄

@Nixxx2000 Год назад

Would you choose Sanwa PC7000 over Brymen BM869s?

@KeepOnTesting Год назад

Sanwa PC7000! I had the Brymen. It's an excellent dmm but I found the Sanwa more accurate and I preferred the display as well. 👍

@mrpetit2 Год назад

@@KeepOnTesting You had both ISO17025 calibrated? I have my BM869S calibrated ISO17025 annually for 5 years now, and it's always within spec, and those specs are consideraby more precise than sanwa's specs. So I have a hard time to believe that you've found the Sanwa more accurate, at least to objective standards. This starts to look like a sponsored video. So the Brymen is cheaper (accesories are cheaper too), has more functionality, has better specs, and has dust/moisture ingress protection.

@joey24698 Год назад

does the software measure/show THD?

@KeepOnTesting Год назад

Negative. Total Harmonic Distortion is not a featureset of the Sanwa PC Link 7 software.

@imranhq13 Год назад

why these high end meters don't have NCV feature?

@KeepOnTesting Год назад

That's a good question 🤔 funny enough NCV seems to be relegated to the CHEAP-O Multimeter realm !

@jonfreeman9682 9 месяцев назад

It's a gimmick like those HFE transistor checkers. Low end meters include things like HFE, temperature, frequency basically things you never use.

Holy F**K that meter is expensive. I was definitely not expecting $438 for just the meter and leads. Another $62.40 if you want a case to protect it. Then an other $59 for a USB/Optical cable link. Oh... and that doesn't come with the software. The will cost you another $49.00. So by the time you get the necessities together, you're at $608.40 USD + tax and i bet they don't give free shipping. (just a guess)

@KeepOnTesting Год назад

I think it's a matter of symantecs. Yes the PC7000 isn't cheap but it's also the top tier digital multimeter in the Sanwa lineup. Fluke 87V is roughly the same price but is alot less impressive technically. The fluke also doesn't ship with a case which is about 50$ more and the included Fluke test leads are crap. I do agree the USB optical cable should be included with the software as a standalone upgrade not 2 separate items. End of day, it's never cheap to get the very best but I can guarantee you it's worth it. 👍

@mrpetit2 Год назад

@LBCAndrew Buy the Brymen BM869S. Cheaper, more functions, better specs, better safety rating, casing is protected against dust/moisture ingress etc. Carry case is much cheaper, the pc link comes with software.... Sanwa is just overcharging. bigtime. And there are at least 2 free aftermarket software packeages available that work even better. For instance fast logging (5x/sec) in hires mode. Afaik they also work with the sanwa, as that is basically a brymen inside.
