    Bosch dwell meter for $15

    I just noticed a Fry's Electronics promo code for a Bosch multi-meter with dwell for $15. It's digital, so not the nice analog swing,...but for 15 bucks?? You have to do an in-store pick up to avoid shipping and you have to pick it up before the deal ends today. I was tempted, but it's quite a drive for me to the nearest Fry's and I already have a dwell meter. But maybe somebody else lives close and wants a meter. Here's the link:

    That looks like a nice meter. At that price you can't go wrong.

    Just me but trying to read a fluctuating signal on a digital meter is difficult. You should be able to buy an old analog dwell meter for $15 and it is much easier to read.

    I agree that is a great price for the Bosch...and that analog is much better for CO/dwell reading (and no batteries needed for the low end Actron ;-).

    That looks identical to my Actron Cp7677 meter which I love and I also have the analog Actron CP7605 for dwell, to which I'd never consider another unit for that. So easy to use, reliable, and cheap, too.
