Simple, student-friendly current measurement for circuits
Make current measurement simple, clear, and unintimidating. The Miniature Digital Ammeter is designed to clip directly into student-built circuits, making it especially approachable for beginners. It comes with alligator clip leads, has a small, elegant design, and fits neatly into almost any setup—so students can focus on understanding current instead of wrestling with equipment.
With a bright digital display and straightforward operation, the meter auto-calibrates, shows polarity with a plus/minus indicator, and automatically powers off to conserve battery life. A 3V lithium battery is included, so it’s ready to use right out of the box.
Why Teachers Love the Mini Digital Ammeter
- Ideal for novice students: Clip-in design, clear digital readout, and polarity indicator reduce common beginner mistakes and build confidence.
- Low-maintenance and reliable: Auto-calibration and auto power-off simplify classroom management and extend battery life.
- Compact and classroom-friendly: Small size and clean design keep student circuits organized and easy to interpret.
- Consistent, repeatable readings: Stable measurements support meaningful comparisons in series and parallel circuit labs.
