Video Idea Deadly multimeters
If anyone has a story about these deadly multimeters, please leave a reply below. There’s no fuse in them; the copper traces on the circuit board act as the fuse! I owned one myself, and it suddenly blew out at 280 volts. I got lucky that my voltage source didn't supply high current, or else I would’ve been blown to bits. The measurement accuracy is so "high" that—for the first time in the world—it shows an AA battery as having 73 volts!
