Introduction to the AstroAI 6000 Digital Multimeter

This short video was created as an introduction to the AstroAI Digital Multimeter for my engineering students at Penn State.

First clear tutorial I have seen. Thanks! I now understand the basics of using the MM.

Just wanted to say thank you, new homeowner and love DIY but can only learn thanks to knowledgeable people like yourself

Thanks and stay safe!

Thank you. Very clear and informative.

I just got this, and I can't figure out how to get the caps off the red and black probe wires. They're so stubby, they're basically unusable as there is barely any metal exposed.

[@LearnToStargaze]

never mind, a set of pliers, and a bit of arm strength, and they eventually gave way.

[@ganymede3141]

Just tug harder. I had the same issue.

Thank you. I have two projects I've been wanting to get done and cant find my meter, so I ordered a new one this morning and wanted to know how to use it.

[@toomanycactus3138]

Have you tried checking current with it? I used it on my bread board with some led’s said to run at 20-30mA but my meter gives me 2.6mA.
I have it in the correct port and am checking in series (using the probes to complete the connection). Any help is appreciated. Thank you for this helpful video!

[@scottgarvy]

Tells you how to connect transistors but what do numbers mean? no info on that.

[@krakenseven6171]

Can you test spark plugs with this

[@CharlesLease-ei1ee]

Any ohm resistance, setting you can measure spark plugs off of any meter

[@chris-ip4pk]

Possibly the world's most unaccurate multimeter.absolutely shite.

[@cardroid8615]

This was reviewed online as the third best automotive multimeter in the UK

Chris, You would MOST LIKELY fail my Electrical Engineering course with flying colors! :)

Chris is just mad he can only afford the $7 harbor freight multimeter.
