This is the latest version of the VC97 Digital Multimeter. It has a large LCD display for easy reading and strong anti-magnetic properties. It has several extended features over other generic multimeters including measurement/testing for capacitance, frequency, duty cycle, temperature, advanced internal protection, diodes and transistor function tests. High input impedance (10MΩ) and operates from 3x AAA batteries (not included).
Competitors are selling the odler variants; the easiest method to spot older version is if the device doesn't have a yellow "Select" button on the top left. Older models do not have as good specifications or performance. There have also been some upgrades on the internal shielding.
