Product Description
Product Description
When you contemplate adding a multi-meter to your toolbox this Gardner Bender auto-ranging unit makes the decision easy. Equipped with an easy-to-read 3½ in backlit LCD digital display and magnetic holding strap making this tester ideal for automotive, appliance, circuit breaker, and other "hands-free" applications. In addition, the multimeter features rubber housing to promote a steadfast comfortable grip while wrap-around lead holders keep leads at the ready. Snap-in probes spaced to fit a standard outlet provide quick and easy testing with one hand. Engineered with seven testing functions; AC Voltage, DC Voltage, Resistance, Diode, Continuity, Temperature Probe and Battery Testing. The 7 position auto-ranging smooth rotary style achieves precise readings and the low battery indicator with auto-off function ensures an accurate read-out. Durable housing with a rubber boot is drop resistant to 6 ft. and crush rated to 150 lbs. Tight and secure input jacks keep the included 26" test leads fixed firmly in place during testing. Unit comes pre-packaged with leads, a magnetic attachment strap for hands-free operation, and user manual. Tester is rated CAT III 600V and conforms to UL 61010-1 standards and certified to CAN/CSA C22.2.

- Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2025Color: Red With Black Rubber BootStyle: Auto 7 Function / 7 RangeVerified PurchaseNeeded a simple meter to check continuity and couldn’t help but find everyone recommending meters that cost $200+. That’d be a complete waste for simple around-the-house troubleshooting. Found this and it does more than enough for a more than reasonable price. The only annoyance was putting in the batteries, which the Included instructions and online manual didn't explain how to do it at all, had to watch a YouTube video. But hopefully those shouldn’t have to be changed for a few years.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 8, 2025Color: Red With Black Rubber BootStyle: Manual 4 Function / 14 RangeVerified PurchaseGreat testing things
- Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2025Color: Red With Black Rubber BootStyle: Manual 4 Function / 14 RangeVerified PurchaseI received this product, looked up the manual on the product's website and tried to install a battery (9-volt) which is not included. It says to remove the boot to reveal the test unit. The boot is made of an almost very tough plastic which makes it impossible to get to the test unit without damaging the boot. I am returning this product. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. In fact, I'd rate it zero if I could. Very disappointed in the design.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2019Color: RedStyle: Manual 3 Function / 13 RangeVerified PurchaseGreat tool. Like that the probes are actually molded around the wire so the can’t rip out easy like other cheap models. Only downside is you need to supply a 9v battery.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2025Color: Red With Black Rubber BootStyle: Auto 7 Function / 7 RangeVerified PurchaseVery easy to use. Backlight is easy to operate and goes off by itself -- so not battery drain. Every bit as good as the "pro" units that cost much more. Just remember to get batteries, which don't come with the unit. Even so, well worth the price.

DSReviewed in Canada on September 19, 20155.0 out of 5 stars Great kit for the price
Color: Red With Black Rubber BootStyle: Auto 7 Function / 7 RangeVerified PurchaseWorks very well for occasional use. I can see it not being robust enough for professional use. But that's ok I am using it occasionally.
Amazon CustomerReviewed in Canada on August 7, 20175.0 out of 5 stars Now we can red them Millivolts.

Color: Red With Black Rubber BootStyle: Auto 7 Function / 7 RangeVerified PurchaseCe multimètre est pratique et solide mais le mode auto amène régulièrement de la confusion lors de l'utilisation, c'est un irritant plutôt désagréable.
