[Review] ANENG V05B Digital Multimeter /w bluetooth & data logging

I think a lot of these DMM’s have similar guts and come from the same factory despite looking physically very different with UI configurations. Mine is a NK-tech brand but I know it’s a rebadged UNI-T. They make great price range meter, I got a uni-T clamp Meyer, sound meter, thermocouple digital thermometer. I even bought an new exact same DMM as a spare as I could’nt find them fuses. I spent more on better leads/probes and alligator clips than the DMM itself which was like $14!

Just received the meter. It is much better than expected, all functions as described.

The only thing I couldn’t figure out is remote management. you can share the measurement live with someone in another location or even geography if both are signed up on the app. You need an account and I haven’t properly tested that yet.
other than that this is a great DMM.

Remote management works with the account, you can sign up on the app.
A really good multi-meter and app!

I was about to build a logging tool with Arduino, but the cost and effort would have been way higher compared to this DMM. The quality is not comparable to a Fluke, but very high for this price point.

thanks, it really is that easy. first I tapped multiple times, but once is enough at the end. the CSV file can be imported into Excel without problems for me.

You are welcome. I thought I’d share what I use and I know how hard finding the right part can be. All of my DMMs use the same fuse type, I think all budget meters are from similar sources. Like someone said above.

Detailed review, have ordered one to test the log stuff. have a few li ion cells I can now chart.

How long do the batteries last when you guys to longer measurements?
like discharging curves or similar? Any type of brand or battery model I should use?

Finally received it - batteries last a long time for me. I use IKEA Ladda AAA cells.
The stand is also a working design, unlike the other cheap DMMs where the stand folds back or breaks off.
So far I think this is a good device, can only recommend it.
It is a small multi-meter, so if a large one is required, then this one wouldn’t be it.

Same. I was looking for these fuses for a very long time. my AE search didn’t turn out the links above. thanks. these fit all the cheap dmms I have running atm and even other stuff going forward.

Good model, thanks for the review. Good for flashlights.

Also ordered the fuses, you never know when you will need them in an emergency.

I designed a Arduino logger and it wasn’t very accurate. This dmm should work as I wanted the Arduino to.

They last weeks, maybe even months, not sure.
Have been using the DMM daily and the batteries are still fully charged.

How does remote management work? Anybody got it working?
where do I sign up for the account? on the app itself or elsewhere?

you can enable this within the app, there is a link to the sign up form.

4 weeks so far and still charged
