You do a better job of most in detailing the probe connections. Some reviewers will just fast forward to the meter screen, leaving the viewer to figure out the connections on their own when they want to replicate the test. Perhaps they assume the viewer is advanced enough to know the exact connections and explaining them would insult the audience. Taking the time to detail this widens the audience, making the test more interactive.

Thanks for the thorough explanation and demonstration. I started watching the Multimeter videos because I bought one yesterday and wanted to make sure I won't blow it (or myself) up in the process, but curiosity brought me here, too, as they didn't cover diodes in classical physics class and I always wondered what each of these components (or at least the common ones) do. I'm not much into electronics myself, but I deal with them when fixing PCs, so still an interesting watch to me. Well done!

Thank you very much for a simple explanation of a diode. My Real world application for this was to test the rectifier on my motorbike. But I now have an understanding of diodes and their place in the world of electronics. I like the way you explain everything in simple to understand terms. You should be a teacher of electronics. Great video Thank you.

I was corrected (and annotated) and was told it was "over limit"...but in many of the Fluke and Agilent manuals I read it says "Over Load"....I guess it comes down to when it's being displayed...i.e. I need to use it (whichever term) correctly in context.

So when there's a voltage drop of 0.5v - 0.8v, does this energy gets converted into heat inside a diode (heat and light in case of LEDs).

I am amazed, being a new to electronics, just how much essence things need to have in order to operate correctly. Everything seems to work in essence. I wondered, will Almond essence work as well as Vanilla essence or is there a special kind of essence needed? I would hate to buy the wrong kind of essence because, in essence, that might upset the essence values in the circuit. In essence. :o)

If I understand you correctly a diode is really a form of a resistor, correct? Question 2...If you have a circuit with say 12V and it's feeding two components, component A needs the full 12 V but component B only needs 6V, would you use a resistor to restrict the flow or a diode to get your 6V. It seems both do the same thing.

Found your series of videos at just the right time. I'm looking to buy my first good multimeter and I was looking at a Fluke 177 today. The first part of your tutorials gave me a great "user manual" for this meter, but on this video you switched to the Fluke 87V. What was the reason and would the 177 have been able to do the same tests or not?
