It doesn't matter if it was bought within the last year, or the last 70 years, you probably remember the first multimeter that you used.
My dad worked as an electrical shift engineer at British Steel / Corus / Tata Steel in the northeast of England, and at home, we of course had all sorts of equipment as I grew up.
He still has this multimeter, and it's the first one I used, I don't remember the exact model, but a trip home would quickly find out. It was a Fluke 8020b type of series, it looks something like this:
The photo is from this ebay listing, I am quite surprised at the second-hand price.
But I'll always remember the distinctive clunks as you pressed each button/switch to make your selections. I mainly used it to verify if the batteries for my toys were fully discharged or not, and if the rechargeable batteries needed more power.
So, do share your photos and anecdotes, what was your first multimeter?
