Sinometer DT9205 Digital Multimeter Review

The DT9205 from Sinometer is a 32-range digital multimeter with all the basic functionality and a robust build. It measures voltage (AC/DC), resistance and current and comes with diode check and transistor test.There are no editorial reviews available for this multimeter, and user reviews are quite varied but generally positive. The average rating on Amazon.com, for example, is 3.5 stars out of five. Many users point out that the DT 9205 offers excellent value for money, while others remark that it is feels fairly cheap or along the lines of “you get what you pay for”.

Considering the exceptionally low price tag at the moment (less than $25) it still has to be said that the ratings are well above average from what you’d expect from such an affordable multimeter.

One user says that the Sinometer DT9205 has an excellent build quality with a comfortable rubber grip and does what it’s supposed to. On the downside, several reviewers remark that the battery drains even when the multimeter is not in use (it ships with a 9V battery).

Because of its lower-than-average price tag it lacks some of the features that are included with more expensive multimeters, such as autoranging and it is not a True-RMS meter. It is therefore primarily targeted at hobbyists and seems to fill this purpose relatively well.
