Review: Great Product - Hobbyist & Professionals - Cons: - Battery: must remove screws to change batteries. Not big deal, but this would be a "nice to have" feature. - Beep: unit continuously beeps when measuring near zero ohms. Perhaps can be disable but haven't discovered how yet. Again not a big deal. Pros: - Purchased during desertcart Prime deal (July 8 - 11) and got fantastic price break - Overall solid and strong construction (possibly could easily withstand 3 feet drop) - Good display: easy to read in normal household ligting; and option turn on back light (illuminate) - Easily detect AC voltage near houshold sockets or behind walls - Easily measure AC and DC current (amps) using clamp (which easily opens, right amount of torque) - Provides option to automatically or manually perform measurements - Solid and durable case for unit, temperature sensor and measurement cables - Great for hobbies, or professional electrician or electronics work - Pleased with product, and would recommend or purchase again
Review: HT208F has LCD screen visible in bright sunlight - I own both the HT208D and the HT208F. Both are a great value with a great many useful functions. I originally bought the D model because I wanted to measure the peak inrush current on our RV AC when I was debugging what turned out to be an on board generator problem. Even though I have a lot of good meters at home, none had inrush capability. The D performed very admirably, but as mentioned by many others, the display can be difficult to see in bright sunlight. Still, I liked the meter so much that I wanted a second one. That's where the F model (HT208F) comes in: It's not immediately apparent, but the F is identical to the D except that it has a standard (backlit) LCD display that is visible in bright sunlight. So if this is a concern for you, get the F model. It's a quality meter with features for most everyone.

## Features

- True-RMS Clamp Meter: This multimeter can accurately measure 1000 Amp AC/DC Current, 1000V AC/DC Voltage, Frequency, Duty Cycle, Resistance, Capacitance, Diode, Continuity, and Temperature. Easy to use for labs factories and households
- Inrush Current Meter: Knowing the value of inrush current can help you locate a startup problem quickly, whether it's in the motor or in the starting circuit. The measuring time of the inrush current is about 100ms. When the current is greater than 10A, the Inrush function works well. The inrush function is only available in AC current mode, DC current does not have the inrush function
- NCV Detection & LED Flashlight: Built-in Non-Contact Voltage (NCV) Detector can easily and quickly determine whether there is a voltage. A convenient LED flashlight illuminates a dimly lit area
- Advanced Functions: The Clamp Meter has Variable Frequency Drive Filtering (VFD) and low Input Impedance (LoZ) modes, which can provide higher accuracy readings
- Safety Service: Safety standard IEC 61010-1, CAT IV 600V, CAT III 1000V. Double insulation. Use high-quality material, to prevent electric shock harm. 36-Month product service provided. 7/24 Customer Service

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Backlight ?  unless i am doing something wrong, there is no display backlight ! can barely see outside in shade.  why not ?**
A: I agree completely.  If vendors want to use reverse displays, then there needs to be a way to invert it back to normal.  This otherwise great meter is nearly USELESS outdoors...  Take a 5 star meter to 2.5 stars since it only works in 1/2 the places I would need it.  Very disappointing...

**Q: Where can i find a manual for the ht208d online?  i only see for the 206.**
A: My meter cam with instructions.

**Q: Will this thing really measure up to 1000 DC amps with the clamps? I need it for automotive use.**
A: Yes it will I have one of these, but it has a + - on it , These meters will do as good as any meter Ive used this day and time, but the best Amprobes for high amperage AC and DC is the old analog clamp on type amprobs I have a set of them I have used for many years, I use this one cause it has a viriety of options on it Ohms volts amps ect, the Amprobes just do amps,,I keep this meter in my shack as my go to meter,,

**Q: What are the the minimum voltage and amperage resolutions in mV and mA ?**
A: This multimeter can accurately measure 1000 Amp AC/DC Current

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ HT208F has LCD screen visible in bright sunlight
*by T***. on August 12, 2024*

I own both the HT208D and the HT208F. Both are a great value with a great many useful functions. I originally bought the D model because I wanted to measure the peak inrush current on our RV AC when I was debugging what turned out to be an on board generator problem. Even though I have a lot of good meters at home, none had inrush capability. The D performed very admirably, but as mentioned by many others, the display can be difficult to see in bright sunlight. Still, I liked the meter so much that I wanted a second one. That's where the F model (HT208F) comes in: It's not immediately apparent, but the F is identical to the D except that it has a standard (backlit) LCD display that is visible in bright sunlight. So if this is a concern for you, get the F model. It's a quality meter with features for most everyone.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Can't read in sunlight
*by J***Y on July 1, 2022*

This is a nice meter, good size, good manual, 3 Yr. warranty, easy to grip, seems high quality, easy to use, lots of functions, nice probes, has a temp probe too. The biggest problem is you can't read the display in full sunlight. I tried to use it to monitor the current of my house, and the main breaker panel is on the south side of my house, can't see the display in bright sunlight. Even shading the display with one hand makes it barely readable. Indoors, the display is very nice, color, viewing angle OK. The clamps are quite large so they are hard to get them around the cables in a full electrical panel with lots of wire. Also the default on current and voltage measurements is DC, I would prefer AC which I'd use it for most of my testing, but that's just my preference. I'd be interested to know if someone has compared it to the Klein AC/DC clamp meter of about the same price.
