Always nice to hear Shannon explain things. Very lucid and direct. No mincing words.

Very practical and nice video as always! When I test a circuit for power though, I always want a positive result before I do the negative one. Test and verify that I have power, cut the power, and test again to make sure it's gone. That way I know the voltmeter works and isn't lying to me - it gets unpleasant rather quickly if the meter is broken and it's actually a live circuit after all. It's possible voltmeters may be different in this regard, but with a non-contact tester you definitely want to do that. Safety first.

This was very helpful Shannon. Liked the explanation on batteries, bulbs, fuses and sockets. Own a multimeter but never taught how to use it, it sat in it's little case until now.

Fun fact: You don't need to remove automotive fuses to test them. The little metal "dashes" on top are testing points. If the Fuse is blown you will not have continuity even if it is installed in the socket still.

Just a safety note: Never trust a breaker when you shut it off. Always check with a meter. I took it for granted that the breaker shut off power to an A/C unit and the breaker was faulty. I got zapped by 240volts.

As cheap as $20 dollars up to however much you would like to spend. I bought mine on Amazon, but any hardware store should carry them.

I have innova 3310, when I measured the new battery 9v, it comes with decimal digits, exp: new battery 9v it came with 0.33, it should comes with 9.0. Is there any way to reset to regular reader digital.

Set your meter to DCV 20 and try it there.

No mention of measuring resistance or current. Could have included those topics in about the same amount of time if this presentation was better organized.

When testing 9 volt and small batteries it helps to have a load on them. A 9 volt volt battery may read 9 volts or close to that but when any sort of load is applied it may show that it really is dead and should be recharged or thrown away.

That's great but without stating _how_ to put said load on you're not actually contributing as much as you may think.

Could you check the load of the 9v battery by turning the dial to 9v on multimeter?
@2aminitials

@@davidhewey9106 No you need a load such as a resistor between the multimeter probes. Some multimeters have battery test settings that would be more accurate than unloaded checks with your multimeter.

You should get Out of the bad habit of saying current like at 2:23, when you are talking about Voltage... There are times when saying and meaning one vs the other will make a big difference in how well your measurement ends up...

You're saying probs (sounds like lobs), while you should be saying probes (sounds like lobes). Just thought you'd like to know. :)
