Just been on the Test meter website, they have a Metrel True RMS meter for £71.00 + vat & also really good prices on Extech, Fluke & Kewtech meters.
The Kewtech KT117 wasn't a bad meter, used to have one in work.
 
Go back out of the thread to the main tools section, at the top in the yellow boxes click on test meter & you should have the code there. I think.

Don't forget to let us know how good it is.
 
I asked about the discount for forum members and I got this

Due to the very heavily discounted prices on our products it's no longer possible to offer this on Digital Multimeters
 
There is another test meter supplier affiliated with a different forum that I've found to be cheaper and give their members special prices. Can't post the name up publicly.
 
That 2006 is a good meter, still prefer the mk5 though.
If you don't get the MK5 tel, drop me a pm ;):)
 
I haven't yet. The start date to my new job has been put back to July 17th so iv got a little bit more time to choose.

I really don't think I can afford much.

It's a choice between the megger/metrel and maybe a fluke 114
 
Hi Buddy: The metrel looks like a good meter, but as i said i can't vouch for it as i've never used one. Fluke used to be good quality kit but can't vouch for the modern stuff, have been told a lot of the cheaper stuff is made in China now.
Did you take a look at the Kewtech meters ? used to have one provided by work & it wasn't a bad meter at all. A lot of people swear by Uni-trend meters, apparently they're quite reasonable priced & a good entry level pro meter.
 
I'll take a look at kewtech and uni-trend. Any meter specifically?

What's the cef own branded stuff like (ethos)
 
Hi mate: Take a look at the uni-t UT139c it's true RMS & does pretty much everything, except make tea & going for £44 on the bay. I think the Kewtech was a KT114. Just a thought: Have you considered a good used meter ? Sorry: never heard of ethos until you mentioned them.
