The digital multimeter has become one of the most useful pieces of test equipment in the tool box of any type of service or repair technician as it allow them to test for a variety of conditions using a single meter. There was a point in time where these meters were all analog and required a fair amount of training and skill to use them. Between the skills needed and the cost of these meters very few people outside of those who needed them for their jobs owned them. Today you are just as likely to find a digital multimeter in the average homeowner's toolbox or junk drawer as you are in the toolbox of the skilled technician. This is because this type of multimeter has become so easy to use that practically anyone can learn the basics of using one in just a few minutes. Not only this but because they are digital the cost of building them has fallen and a homeowner can buy a basic multimeter for just a few dollars at their local hardware store. Unlike the older analog multimeters that were big, bulky and heavy, the newest styles of digital multimeters are far more compact thanks to modern electronic technology. They are often small enough to be stuck in a pocket without even noticing that they are there. Even more importantly the modern multimeter has far more functions than the analog version which makes it a much more versatile; in fact there are now different variations of multimeters targeted towards particular fields such as automotive technicians or electricians. One major problem that existed with analog multimeters was that in order to read them accurately you had to be in good lighting and looking straight at it otherwise it was easy to misread. With a digital multimeter you get a large LCD display that is easy to read from practically any angle, many of them now feature a back light that enables you to read them in any lighting condition. You can choose the size of the display and should pick one that you will be able to see no matter what you are doing. You will find that today's digital multimeter comes in a variety of formats including those with the standard positive and negative probes for use in dozens of applications, ones that have a clamp on one end to be used measure high amperage flow such as you might find in industrial power centers. There are even meters that are not much bigger than a pen and can test several different things simply by using the built in probe.
