The EX330 is an entry-level electronics-oriented DMM. It works well and is sensibly priced. But this BM786 multimeter is a step up in every respect. It is also physically about twice the size. This special-label version of the Brymen BM786 model is exclusively available through Dave Jones' EEVBlog. Brymen also has a couple other models in the series -- the BM785 and BM789. This BM786 adds higher quality electrical probes, a temperature probe and a conductance (nS) feature beyond what comes with the BM785. The BM789 adds AutoV LoZ, dBm, a second temperature probe, and 100MHz bandwidth. (These other Brymen DMMs are not readily available from US retailers, but you can maybe find them internationally.) Compared to my previous entry-level DMM, the implementation of every function on the BM786 is just more thought out and transforms the DMM into a collection of more useful features -- ranging, auto hold, true-RMS, min-max-avg record, "crest" (peak-peak), delta etc. The BM786 seems very tough. This EEVBlog version comes in a royal blue armored silicone case. (Normally Bryman DMMS are red). There are slots in the case to hold the included probes for one-handed operation. The device uses 3x AAA batteries (included) and has a backlight feature and large, high-contrast LCD screen. The backlight will turn off after 16 minutes. The device also has an auto-power-off 30 minute timer that can be overridden by holding the "Select" button when switched on. (Auto-power-off is also disabled when recording.) Make sure you read the downloadable PDF manual from front to back to learn all the important details that will make your use of this meter much easier. Most importantly, I'm supporting EEVBlog in a small way with the purchase of this product. Thank you Dave! Review: Affordable Advanced Multimeter and has better features than the expensive options - Wanted a high quality multimeter for a affordable price and it was just a fluke one day when I watched a video online learning about this amazing multimeter option. All the features for 1/3 the cost. Very accurate and has specs better than I expected. Super great flexible Thick Multimeter Leads/Probes. Very happy with this purchase. VERY HAPPY!!! ... and Yes you can use 1.2V 1100mAh NIMH AAA rechargeable batteries in this multimeter according to the video, and I tested them and 1.2V 1100mAh NIMH purchased on desertcart work great, and with NIMH no worries of corrosion that you could suffer with Alkaline AAA 1.5V batteries. ## Features - EEVblog Brymen BM786 True RMS Professional Multimeter - Fast latching continuity buzzer with visual backlight alert feature. Great for noisy environments - 60,000 Count 0.03% DC Accuracy - Multi-Level Contactless Electric Field Detection - Temperature (Probe included) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B08N61LF4Z | | Best Sellers Rank | #463,846 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #739 in Multi Testers | | Brand Name | EEVblog | | Color | Blue | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (103) | | Item Dimensions | 7.48 x 3.46 x 1.97 inches | | Item Weight | 576 Grams | | Manufacturer | Brymen | | Measurement Type | Multimeter | | Model | BM786 | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Specification Met | CE, FCC | | Style Name | Continuity Testers | | UPC | 647267952521 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** EEVblog - **Color:** Blue - **Item Weight:** 576 Grams - **Power Source:** Battery Powered - **Style:** Continuity Testers ## Images ![EEVblog BM786 Multimeter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/8141kUMRO1L.jpg) ![EEVblog BM786 Multimeter - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81MQwTjxphL.jpg) ![EEVblog BM786 Multimeter - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81RQXzls9wL.jpg) ![EEVblog BM786 Multimeter - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81-pgYHzATL.jpg) ![EEVblog BM786 Multimeter - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81rsinOfgOL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What are the dimensions of the DMM out of the box?** A: 85mm x 190mm x 47mm **Q: What is the country of manufacture?** A: It's manufactured in Taiwan to Dave's specifications. **Q: What firmware version ships with this?** A: Mine has version "07" firmware. **Q: Does this multimeter have a dual voltage/frequency display like the Brymen 786s does?** A: No, single display only. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent balance of features in a level-up DMM *by R***L on May 22, 2021* I have been using an Extech EX330 DMM for about 5 years.

I can say without a doubt, this is better than the Fluke 115. We have a 115 at work as well, but I have never really cared for that model and it lacks a lot of the features which the BM786 has. If the 115 wasn't a Fluke branded meter, that thing would be $50 or less (instead it is $170). Literally everything about this meter is better than the Fluke 115, from the 60k count RMS accuracy, to the ability to read micro amps, it's just an amazing multimeter for $175. I was shocked when I learned that this meter has a higher RMS count than my benchtop $270 Tenma 72-1020! If you wanted the features of this BM786 in a Fluke branded meter, you'd be dropping $500-$1000. The accuracy and stability of readings are top notch, the screen is very easy to read, the indication piezo is sufficiently loud (maybe too loud), it feels good in the hand and should survive a lot of abuse, it has the ability to store readings, it will alert you if you connect to the wrong terminals for the mode of the meter, it has a smartly designed battery tray and I could go on and on. After using it for a few months I absolutely love it!
