[To all users]

  • Reconnecting cables between terminals of meter is no longer needed unlike traditional analog meters.
  • Unlikely to be damaged from wrong connection.
  • Avoid any human error that may occur when selecting measurement range.
  • Allows trial and errors freely in making various types of electric circuits.

[To teachers]

  • Battery change is automatically noticed on the display, so battery exhaustion before/during experiment became avoidable.
  • Automatic power-off function minimizing consumption of battery power.
  • Overload protection function.

[To students]

  • Better illustrate the similarity in the image of the meters written in circuit diagrams contained in textbooks.
  • Easily connect with electric circuit in accordance with the circuit diagrams thanks to the in-line type shape of the product.
  • No longer required to spend time for the troublesome measurement range selection as happens with multi-meters.
  • Easy to notice that an ammeter displays results with plus (+) and minus (-) signs reaffirming the direction of electric current that flows in the circuit.
  • Measurement range: ±3A
  • Automatically switchable display: 1mA (0~±500mA), 0.01A (~±3.0A)
  • Size: 53×21×15mm, Whole length: ca 280mm
  • Battery: CR1220 x1pcs

  • [EXPERIMENTS 20210105] Resistance in a parallel Circuit: As for the learning outcomes, learners will recognize 1) the whole electric current flowing in a parallel circuit is equal to the sum of electric current flowing through each component (branch), and 2) voltage value across a component of each branch of the parallel circuit is equal to each other. Consequently, learners will understand this through their experiments.

  • [EXPERIMENTS] Resistance in a Series Circuit: As for the learning outcomes, learners will recognize 1) the amount of electric current flowing in any position of a series circuit is consistent, and 2) the whole potential difference in a series circuit is equal to the sum of potential difference across each component in the circuit. Consequently, learners will understand that the whole resistance value in a series circuit is equal to the sum of a resistance value of each component with the help of Ohm's law formula.
