What do you need to measure? I bought what I thought was a good one but it didn’t measure amps for DC current. Annoyingly I had to buy another just to take one measurement.

Here’s the catch, I don’t really know. I’ve got a set of digital scales that are broken, I suspect it’s a broken switch.
I’ve also just bought a coffee grinder that doesn’t work, but no longer switches on.
I figured I could just do some basic continuity testing to look for broken switches or loose connections. I don’t really know what I’m doing.
Ironically, I’m training as a sparky, but so far I’ve only done classes on building and wiring regulations because we can’t do any of the practical training due to covid, which doesn’t help me testing electronics.
