  • This isn't a tutorial how to use a multimeter....... THIS IS MOST OF THE ESSENTIAL INFORMATION ON PROPERLY HANDLING ELECTRICITY/ELECTRONICS AND I'M GRATEFUL BECAUSE EVERYONE NEEDS THIS.
  • @tomfish1285
    The absolute best instruction on a meter I've ever seen.
  • @Beegs164
    Seriously spent 2-years trying to figure this out as hobbiest. Much appreciated for making this!
  • @freestyla101
    I learnt more from this video than I have from every other video I’ve watched on the subject.
  • @GigasAhriman
    Hey Engineering Mindset. Just wanted to say I seriously love this video. I'm starting from the absolute beginning and your tutorial is easy to understand yet thorough. I was watching a tutorial from a different channel and I noticed the comments had some safety-related concerns so I searched again and found this. I feel like I'm learning an actual life skill. Not going to be an electrical engineer lol, but this will help to identify if* something is still live or reading correctly. Thank you all so much for making this
  • @Itzvinnyboii
    Thank the Lord for people who make informational videos like this
  • @hugebartlett1884
    This must be the best multimeter instruction video I have ever seen!
  • @HearMeLearn
    bro this is like a masterclass level tutorial on how to use a multimeter, if I ever forget literally anything about them I can just look at this video
  • @orbepa
    Loving you vids. I'm an IT guy and got into electrics a bit more recently since having solar panels. Now I am tinkering with changing lights etc in my workshop. Your series is brilliant for giving me the basics. I've now ordered a multimeter and bought your pdf - thank you
  • @benhurley280
    This is gold! Would love a fault finding with a multi meter in a control panel video. Thanks for this video 👍🏻
  • @MyArmHurtsBad
    Your hard work is impressive. You made it so easy to understand
  • I use mine to build guitar pedals and test components, but I don't do it often enough and I have to watch something like this again to remind me of all the settings again. This about covers everything I use it for.
  • @jboy6944
    A video I didn’t know I needed. God bless you Paul!
  • @alaricace8118
    Damn I learned more about electronic components while learning about the multi meter
  • @DonovanBrown
    This is the best multimeter content I have found online. Thank you so much I learned a ton.
  • You broke this down Barney style for people like me. I bought an expensive multimeter like I knew what I was doing and...yeah...no clue what I was doing. 😂
  • @WellyngtonDev
    The best explanation of multimeter that I've ever seen on youtube
  • @useless2825
    i am so happy you made this video. I'm a visual learner and the teacher wasn't showing us a single example for the entire 6 hr class. I was confused for so long on just trying to find the right signal to use
  • @davidnipper
    This is great! Would love one on a handheld oscilloscope tutorial!!!!
