Super Tight Budget DMM Series - Episode II

Today we take a look at the dwarf-sized Zoyi ZT-C4 DMM (sold by Hasagei store on Amazon) and put it through the paces. Can a sub $9 multimeter possibly be any good? We find out.

This is the second installment in a planned series of very low cost multimeters that cost under $14.99 (or less) and have all the basic functions of an electronics bench multimeter (including capacitance).

This is an unsponsored video as I purchased the unit for the purpose of doing a fair and unbiased review of this DMM.
