Great lecture! Thanks for the closed captioning, I'm deaf and always appreciate seeing videos with subtitles, thanks again.

Great lecture, as I read this 9 years later! Surprised you did not mention the main advantage of analog meters over digital meters. With an analog meter it easy to visualize fluctuating signals as opposed to a digital meter displaying rapidly changing numbers.

Thank you professor, I grew up with analog and migrated to digital, but still use both. You are correct in pointing out there are advantages to using analog meters in certain applications. I own a Triplett meter 630 NS and a Fluke 867B digital meter, both have a place on my bench.

Thanks! I inherited the same meter from my pops. It's been around over 40 years and it still works. No cracks or chips. 😁

THANK YOU! Had to test battery on the truck. All I could find was my old analog voltmeter. Your vid showed me how to read the results when selected to 50v!

It's only smart to know how to use both an Analog and a Digital meter.
This video is very helpful for the beginners and as a refresher.
Currently own both types.
