Picked up one of the talking units about 6 months ago... I found out I didn't care for it talking to me! It was only 2 bucks more and at least you can turn off the voice as you power up the unit! Otherwise it's very convenient and accurate enough! I keep it in my solar shack cabinet... It kinda tears through the AAA batts, but it's worth having a meter you can use up on a ladder and the display is really easy to read! Thanks for the great video on this unit!

Thanks for this video! I just got one of the 3009 units and the operations manual did not have instructions for turning on the flashlight. Your video answered that frustrating question. Thanks again for the very well-done video !!! Keep up the good work 😊. Ted

Yeah, I like it a lot too. Not only is it a full featured multimeter that works very well, but I still haven't replaced the battery a year later and it's the only multimeter I use now. It's just that much more convenient. Mine is super accurate. My other Aneng a8009 is dead on too with my voltage reference. All the way out to 3 decimal places it's right on the money which is nice when you're measuring any kind of batteries. The whole multimeter in a pen it's just too convenient. It works too well.

Anyways, you forgot to mention a couple things. Auto mode won't detect very low voltages. Something under 1 volt. But manual mode is good to go.

Also, manual continuity mode works way better, it latches a lot faster. But if you just need one quick test auto mode is still easier.

It has auto off. It beeps three times to warn you then it beeps one last time and shuts off. I like that.

Pretty cool multimeter.

Saw this in your EDC 3.0 loadout. Looks really handy to have in an EDC kit, which I often use for trouble shooting things.

The 3 Phase Sequence Detection feature is most interesting. 😎 Thank you.

Thank you for recommending this video! I like these pen style meters for quick checks then bringing out a real meter if need be. I’ve been using a Fluke 101 as the lightweight “first responder” meter. It looks like this pen has similar features in a smaller form factor. I’ll have to check it out, and perhaps cut the wire to the speaker 😂.

I have the A3009 which I love except it kills the battery in several days with no use. I bought the A3008 by accident wanting another voice model. This one doesn’t kill the battery without use. They are both great, I just take the battery out of the A3009 when I’m done with it.

Thank to the information.I bought one to test my Christmas lights, didn't know it had all those features that's for the information

mine was delivered today, along with an AN3005 to keep in the glovebox of my car.
The voice prompt is quite annoying after a while, and seems to dip the display as it speaks like it chews a fair bit of power.

As a basic tool to quickly test DC supplies, both are going to be fine. For precision stuff, you are going to reach for the higher end gear for sure. Sometimes you just need a simple test lamp style device instead of holding a multimeter and two probes. I think it's pretty darn good for the price. I am wondering how long a single AAA battery will last though!

I have a neoteck version I got on Amazon for 17 bucks and it works great I don't deal with more than 277 volts normally so it works perfect I use the hot wire tester most of all to find the electrical issues in ballast wires

Very awesome detailed review! I need a multimeter and non contact voltage detector for typical homeowner and home mechanic use. For example, right now I'm troubleshooting my HVAC system and control board and also, I'm shopping used cars and wanted something to be able to test batteries very quickly. I picked out the Aneng brand on Amazon and started looking for reviews, which led me to your video. Would you recommend the A3009 or A3008 for my needs? Are there any situations when the frequency detection would be useful for me? I don't really feel one way or anpther about the voice broadcast feature personally. Thanks for your insight and time!

[sameerkhan]

only one main problem with all these types of budget pen multimeters is they don't have current (amps) measuring feature

[Eddy]

Very good demo as both seems like good products ... Thx

[mohamedgamaleldien]

thanks sir for sharing your experience. i have ordered the a3008. and I found the 3009 with close price. are there any difference or add on except the annoying sound?

[markclark]

I have a Mustool MT007PRO looks the same as the A3008 It works great

[MN-Jim]

As a lefty I always find pen multi meters cumbersome and backwards, the display is upside down or impossible to read, making the convenience of being small and portable irrelevant. I had though gee wouldn’t it be great if it could talk!
Now I want on that sounds like a sexy female British spy!

[freshadmin]

Great video.
I have an ANENG A3008, I would like to ask you if this pen can test in circuit electrolytic capacitors?
If yes can you show me how it's done and how to interpret the test results?
Thanks in advance.

[naushadahmed]

Basic Aneng A3005 fulfils need in budget.

[DanCeese]

Hi, thanks for this informative video!

But I also have a question. Does the Aneng 3009 have a way to turn off the voice broadcast? Otherwise these are nifty tools to have on hands when you don't want to carry a big multimeter around!
