Metravi XB-33CF Digital TRMS Multimeter 6000 counts

I am an electronics field technician.My primary DMM was the Fluke 17b+ for my work and then bought the metravi xb33cf as a secondary meter.The metravi xb33cf is one of the few good multimeters I've used after the flukeIts small form factor and large display makes it easy to read and carry around, I used the same model from 2 years ago. I think it looks a bit upgraded now and the display backlight works in 3 steps. In new modelIf we talk about the probe, the quality is very good, the wires are soft and the grooves are there to increase the grip of the finger in the new model.The tips of the probes are strong and sharp and cannot be easily bentThe display is very good and easy to read, the buzzer quality is very clear and loud and the automatic power off system works well.The instrument is neatly packaged 2 "AAA" size batteries and TEMPERATURE probe, user manual comes with additional 6 months warranty and calibration certificate This is a DMM suitable for professionals and DIYers alike.Its Totaly worth every penny

Nice product from metravi instruments.the product is not indian made.product from winapex company.winapex ET 8101 is similar model to xb33cf.ET 8101 costs 1200.but purchasing from metravi instruments ensuring the after sales service.The built quality good.interms of electrical protection only medium.for 10 amp range a 10 amp not branded fake ceramic fuse in series.also have a glass fuse for other functions.and additional 1 ptc protection only.the test leads are good.display good clear.need to increase backlight time.capacitence function good.accuracy good compare with fluke 101.i think better choice maxtech.it only cost 1200

Works perfectly fine. Super quality. I use it for dc voltages, connectivity checks and ac voltages. Contactless voltage checking is a good feature.

I've using it for last few days. It is an awesome multimeter in this price point. It is automatic and gives exact readings. The added advantages are capacitance meter and temperature meter. AC detection without cable is an awesome feature. I've another metravi meter which is manual. This one is very handy, small, portable and above all very accurate. A must buy..

Could not find such accuracy as claimed in the advertisementAbsolutely not worth as advertisedMay be product for beginners and obviously not for professional personnel use.

This should really not be anyone's primary meter.Quite apart the terrible packaging (it shipped in its display box, with a slip cover on top) which caused a bit of a knock in one corner, the leads were old and tarnished and caused some serious glitches in the initial runs till I got them wiped down and cleaned. Will need new leads at some point.Runs off two AA batteries - don't use the ones sent with the meter, get some decent Alkaline ones. A temperature probe is supplied along with some tarnished and semi-usable test probes. No croc clips, you'll need your own for clipped-on measurements.The NCV is probably the best feature of this instrument, very handy for preventing electrocution from disconnected SMPS or tube amplifier power sections. The autoranging with range switching is also a nice thing to have (for moving targets), and the accuracy is decent. Checked against a precision meter, it comes out to within a percentage point on almost all parameters. Low-ohms testing is better than even a midrange Fluke, so that's something.Unfortunately there's a few issues. The illumination and hold switches are together, and the former requires long press. The light duration is also very short, it's not a toggle. Which means you have to use one hand to keep both probes in position and then long press the button. You also have no chance of tracking behaviour as the light goes off by the time you have one glance. So you get only one shot at a reading if working in a dark-ish environment, basically.The torch is useless. I know that's not why you buy it, but a lot of audio installations are very dark and it would have helped. This doesn't. I need typically between four and six meters at one time when debugging and building circuits so this will find some use somewhere, but it's not the Fluke sidekick that I expected. Don't expect wonders at this price.

Good

Good one. Shows OL in-lieu-of 1 when overload. Top LED is additional though brighter LED would have been better. I attached a string to the device to hang from anywhere cause I need that. NCV can indicate presence of electricity in a cable but can't penetrate wall so don't expect to detect leakage inside wall. Fully automatic, which is really fantastic. So, surely recommendable.
