Folks,

A friend of mine is traveling to the US and I ask her to bring back a 510 ohm meter for me. I will be placing the order online to be delivered to her address so that she can just bring it on her way back.

Can someone please advise on a good reliable ohm meter with 510 thread. An added bonus would be ego thread. I am looking for something reliable and accurate.

Thanks,

Before some fool comes in and blurts out Fluke, I'd ask them which model and ask them compare the price and specs and justify that kind of thoughtless advice....

...it would be highly entertaining.

this one is accurate. Only one I've considered worth buying. (there may be others as good; but I'm not an ohmmeter encyclopedia)

For the money, you'd be hard pressed to find anything remotely as accurate or reliable than one of those USA Ohmmeters.

USA Ohm Meters is supposed to be the most accurate.

0.018 ohms according to them, and from what I've seen out of my cheapo boxes and my good performing boxes, it sounds like a fair claim....

...still slightly better than my Fluke 289 while about $500 to $600 cheaper and about 1/3 the cost of having mine calibrated.

Damn I gotta break down and get a USA. My Fluke stays at work seeing as how the government saw fit to buy one for me and keep it calibrated. I want to play with my rda more now that I'm happy with the box I built. Close counted when it comes to my cheaper work mods and the orchid. They're not as accurate as my yihi and dna are.

Honestly, anything with 0.0x capability is plenty because nor you nor your battery will notice anything after. Your wallet will.

Personally, I get real interested whether my build is 0.16 or 0.11Ω. And, I do notice the difference between 75 and 110 Watts. And my batteries (dual parallel, mind you, safety first!) do notice the difference between 22 and 32 Amps.


not sayin' . . . just sayin' . . . . :blush:
