  • Notes
  • The AVO DA116 is a multimeter that offers many benefits to those measuring amps, volts, and ohms.

    For a start, it's a digital instrument that gives you large easy-to-read results in any light. Powered by four ordinary zinc carbon 1.5 V batteries that last for more than 500 hours.

    With an easy to read 3½ digit liquid crystal display, it offers 30 ranges (up to 1000V and 10A on both AC and DC  ranges with six resistance ranges measuring up to 20 MΩ. With a high-speed ohms facility, around 10 times faster than normal resistance ranges, and a special Junction test range for testing of diodes and semiconductors in circuit.

    The AVO DA116 is housed in a tough case that rakes a simple snap-on protective cover, which also doubles as a support stand and test lead holder.
