With our cars getting old, there is often a need to measure voltage, current and resistance as part of fault-finding or confidence building activites. Although cheap multimeters can be purchased from around £7, they often lack quality and the test leads usually do not last long being of very poor quality - more plastic than rubber covering.
There is then the problem of knowing whether the item you receive is actually giving an accurate reading as it will be a cheaply produced unit with little or no post-production testing.
Following a currently live thread, I have looked into the purchase of a reasonable quality auto-ranging DVM with a good enough spec for routine tests on cars. The meter in question is this auto ranging unit.

If there is sufficient interest I can purchase a set, test for accuracy against my Fluke DVM as a reference and then post onwards. Provided a minimum of five people are interested this can be done for a total cost of £18.00 per unit including the onwards posting.
I am assuming this is within the club rules. If not, I am sure the mods will let me know and delete the thread (in which case my apologies in advance and thank you).
If you are interested and are giving a gentleman's commitment to pay up after I have purchased and tested the units, please add you name below.
I have no intention of running a business so this is a one-off activity.

On reflection, I think this should probably be in the general section.
