    I remember when I was just starting in college I decided that I was building enough electronics that I needed a Volt-Ohm-Milliammeter (VOM) of my own and I bought a Knight Kit from Allied Electronics and…

    When I started with electronics I was probably only 16 or 17 and managed for several years without any test equipment at all. Obviously, not much of my stuff worked as I had no method of finding faults…

    This was my first piece of test equipment; a multimeter.  Not sure when I got it exactly, late '90s some time I guess.  Almost certainly bought by my dad from the big blue Farnell catalogue over the phone.  When I was looking it up the datasheet is still available from Farnell UK (http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/301738.pdf ).  I think it arrived in time to help out with the last iterations of my Lego city where I was using LEDs and torch bulbs to illuminate my buildings.  Then I got into building amateur Robot Wars machines for competitions with school friends.  I've still got it, there's a better one at the top of my toolbox now but this one's still very reliable and is often pulled out if I want to measure current and voltage at the same time.  It's had a few new batteries a couple of fuses and a new set of test probes but I can't think of another electronic gadget I've used so consistently for over 20 years.  As a first piece of test equipment a multi meter is hard to beat!
