Spot on Eric! That fuse replacement access is soooo painful! 😳👍 Viewing angle could be improved..That gorgeous green backlight makes all the difference 👌
I love big displays, I'm disabled and have often problems with seeing little tiny numbers on small displays, cool that this things exist, I hope it's not too expensive and I can get 1 in the uk. 🖖
Keep in mind that the brand "Aneng" is a solely commercial brand, not a producer or engineering unit. Most of their products are from "Zotek". But on this product I pass: money and engineering capacity were focused on design and show effect, NOT on specs and handling. I think that is the main reason for Zotek to not distribute it under her own brand "Zoyi" to not damage their good reputation
Honestly, for me, it's one of the best Aneng releases in a long time. It's not for everybody, but Aneng definitely put some thought into this multimeter. It's by no means perfect but a good multimeter in its own right.👌
Amazing progress for ANENG! Plus we get SHIELDING for Darren 🍹 perhaps it is also a weight? Looks like nickel plated steel. You are the first reviewer, the insider dude. When I first saw this meter I thought it might be a combo game console and multimeter 🎮 Gotta love big digits and a repositioning screen for under-hood use. No tilt-stand required. Nice to see a pushbutton multimeter that doesn't have the Auto mode. On the box, Maybe they meant to day that it's auto-ranging? A bit of a miss, they could have made the multimeter turn on and off with the display being open, along with the backlight. With 1800 mAh, that battery should last weeks even with the light on all the time.🙂
Great points Paul! I like your idea about having the multimeter automatically turn on when opening the case ! Btw, It's got some weight to it as well, which is really nice. Agreed, lost in translation on the box, autoranging is surely what they meant to say! 😅 Shielding was totally unexpected !! All in all, it's a really nice package for not much dinero.
Why doesn't it have an auto mode? This mode is extremely useful for detecting full shorts in a live circuit. If two points are connected, it beeps, if not, displays either resistance or voltage (if there is any).
I love the backlight! (though there seem to be a gap in the backlight strip below) Not really a fan of the form factor though, but THAT IS A BIG SCREEN! We need to see more current clamps. Ones that can do DC current please!
Couple of ideas. 1) List the spec needed for say.. DIYer, Electrician, electronics hobbyist. 2) How to test different components, like identifying the pins on a transistor etc. 3) How to not blow up your meter/electrocute yourself. Safe testing methods. 4) Good habits like pulling out the current lead immediately after you measure it.
This formfactor actually exists for a while. Gossen used to have some like this, but then with the old-style rotary switch though. Look at the Gossen M243E for example.
Gossen's M234D definitely looks the part, although it's priced over $1,000, so a tad more expensive. Still, the Aneng 623 is a totally unique design we have rarely seen.🔭
Might be some sort of shielding since it's right over the relays to prevent magnets from interfering with them. This DOES happen and not with the cheapest brands actually, Gossen Metrawatt has a very expensive meter that is prone to this and can leave it in an 'undocumented' state and give false (dangerous) readings..
I bought it, but I have returned it to the store. This product has quite an attractive model, but the quality and quantity are questionable. My complaint with the Aneng 623 multimeter is that the LCD screen is not flush with the casing, and the casing does not close tightly at the right and left corners, and also the measurements for the resistors are rated higher... and the buttons are quite hard, not smooth. Initially I was curious and bought it, but was disappointed so I returned it to the shop
Unique MM variation -- looked like that shielding was meant for protection from current shunt heat and fuse blast shielding-(?) instead of main CPU area /component EMP interference-? Looked like a metal plate more than just tape etc.
Input-dependent CAT rating that does not quite agree with the construction practices of this instrument - this looks CAT II at best. BTW, if you want to do a tutorial on multimeter use, do include the CAT system - and what would probably happen if you accidentally shorted out an actual CAT III installation in current mode with this kind of instrument..... or even a vehicle traction battery...
They need to make that case in either HI-VIS yellow or Orange so that it can easily be found in the garage!!!! IDEA: Set up a standardized "testing" process that your use upon every single MM and then prepare a spreadsheet with the results. No recommendations, just results.
Hi Darren!! My idea for the tutorial is explain the use of multimeters cats II, cat III, cat IV and the importance of this, the difference of continuity and ohms mode
With a total cost with shipping being around $50 US, I wouldn't call it cheap. I'm not sure about the automotive features, maybe that's what makes it worth it. I would like to mention (just because I'm a know-it-all,) when testing for voltage or resistance with a reference module, You should use the best and shortest leads possible. but anyway nice video.
It's actually right on the CHEAP-O cusp..50$ US ..so higher end of cheap 😅 That being said I think it's a fair price considering the build quality and overall functionality...
Multimeter voltage safety: we need to get the word out how to hold the leads and avoid dangerous electric pathways to the human body. I see people on other channels using two hands to test high voltage all the time. 😮
It's not everyone's flavor for sure, but I really liked its nouveau approach to what a traditional multimeter should look like. It's definitely not a toy, although it does resemble one 😅
I have a situation where the meter keeps faling over, and it is the only place it fits in the cabinet. I could put this meter in a better and smaller place. It would never fall in that location.
@@KeepOnTesting yeah I like this form factor,, the display is well protected and its an built in case once the dmm is closed/clam shell. More space for a larger display and battery in the future, no need for a stand. There a lot of potential. I hope this will catch on
Love the form factor. If Aneng would refine the viewing angle on the display and add a fuse access door, that one could be a winner.
Spot on Eric! That fuse replacement access is soooo painful! 😳👍 Viewing angle could be improved..That gorgeous green backlight makes all the difference 👌
@@KeepOnTesting I've been shopping for the 623 and ran across the aneng 612. Have you had a chance to look at it yet?
@@ericbaker1200@ericbaker1200 Hi Eric. Actually, I reviewed the ANENG 613 a few months back. Https://ruclips.net/video/Rx903TH9nZc/видео.html
I like it. Honestly, not much excites me anymore, but this meter is worth getting. The big display is something that could come in handy on my bench.
It's so true, that display is one of a kind! 👍
I love big displays, I'm disabled and have often problems with seeing little tiny numbers on small displays, cool that this things exist, I hope it's not too expensive and I can get 1 in the uk. 🖖
It should be around 30-35£ ...display is awesome 👌 Big bold and that gorgeous green backlight !
@KeepOnTesting that's cool, thank you very much 🤗
Now, THAT'S a beauty.....thanks, Darren
It sure is! 👍
Jagged red pattern around the keys reminds me of the scrabble playing board.
You got a point there Paul!

Yep, that shielding is really thick and definitely acts as a weight to avoid flipping over.
Why doesn't it have an auto mode? This mode is extremely useful for detecting full shorts in a live circuit. If two points are connected, it beeps, if not, displays either resistance or voltage (if there is any).
Great point! 👍 A semi smart mode would have been a nice addition. I'm not sure why Aneng negated this from the meter!
Wow hope more brands will create meters with this form factor
Hopefully! It's definitely unique. 👍
Not bad at all: big non inverting display, good UI with dedicated buttons and a useful form factor. At bit cheep from the inside.
Хорошее произношение, вроде американский акцент, интересный для меня профиль канала. Буду аудирование проходить. 😊
Спасибо, друг!
Добро пожаловать в команду! 👍

Yes, there's a little bleeding at the bottom of the display. However, it's not really affecting the overall quality. More DC Clamps a coming!
@@KeepOnTesting Now if those claps would also have a screen that big, or better even, a detachable wireless one!

Honestly, it looks like a nuke or airstrike launching device used by Special Forces or in Call of Duty games. Enemy contact! Airstrike! Booom! 💥
Hehe, So true! That gaming console look and feel is soooo unique 👌
It's not shielding, it's a ballast for weight distribution.
Right on! 👍
Might be some sort of shielding since it's right over the relays to prevent magnets from interfering with them. This DOES happen and not with the cheapest brands actually, Gossen Metrawatt has a very expensive meter that is prone to this and can leave it in an 'undocumented' state and give false (dangerous) readings..
@ssalient Probably doing both jobs. Always nice to see shielding of any sore on a multimeter 👍
Wonder how accurate the capacitance mode is. The ANENG 613 was outstanding in the uF & mF ranges.
It was fine, fast 20mF max.
I bought it, but I have returned it to the store. This product has quite an attractive model, but the quality and quantity are questionable. My complaint with the Aneng 623 multimeter is that the LCD screen is not flush with the casing, and the casing does not close tightly at the right and left corners, and also the measurements for the resistors are rated higher... and the buttons are quite hard, not smooth.

Sounds like you got a lemon. Too bad as it's a fairly decent dmm for the road.

Great perspective Mike, you're probably right! 👍
Cool style
Definitely unique 👌

It's a cheap one, about now 30 Euro incl. transport, BUT the technical value stands in line with the conventional multimeters half the price.
Different market...a digital tachometer with a multimeter in one package is dirt cheap for a mechanic.
Agreed, lots value here 👍
All ok battery only problem Lipo battery is short time only damage
у меня такой приборчик.
How do you like it? 👍
ооо ,он превосходен и дарит много положительных эмоций в моей работе,я купил его на алиэкспресс.
