###I have two digital multimeters that I no longer need. ![](https://cdck-file-uploads-us1.s3.dualstack.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/flex016/uploads/pimoroni/original/1X/6c7cf6d7eeeadfae8491513857f46d2fb1bdfbb4.jpg) I can’t be bothered to put them on eBay or anything like that. One is an auto ranging Micronta one that does DC and AC voltage, DC current, diode check, and resistance. I probably paid £30+ for this more than 10 years ago. The other one is a cheap Chinese job with DC and AC voltage, DC current, resistance, diode check, and transistor hFE (which I’m pretty sure doesn’t work properly). I was given this one a few years ago. My thought was “_There must be a couple of beginners in the Raspberry Pi community that would like a multimeter_”. I would like to give them to two different people, although I would be happy to send them both to a school or similar. They have both been in use until recently, and are accurate, as far as I know (they at least both agree and match my new multimeter). They will both come with a battery and test leads. Obviously, there are only two, so it will have to be the first two people that respond. I thought that the recipients could **optionally** buy me something cheap (£2-4) from Pimoroni, such as these 7-segment display 4-digit LED display 12-button keypad but that is **not** a condition, just a suggestion, because the idea is that these will go to people who cannot afford a multimeter.
