Elenco M-1000B Digital Multimeter

The item is an Elenco M-1000B Digital Multimeter, designed for electrical measurements. Physically, it is a compact, rectangular handheld device, predominantly black in color, constructed from what appears to be a durable plastic or composite material, typical for electronic tools. Its dimensions are consistent with being comfortably held in one hand, as observed in the image. The front face features a clear, segment LCD display at the top for numerical readings. Below the display, a large central rotary switch, also black, allows the user to select various measurement functions and ranges. The white text and symbols on the dark background indicate numerous settings including DCV (Direct Current Voltage), ACV (Alternating Current Voltage), DCA (Direct Current Amperage), Ohm (Resistance), and specific ranges such as 200, 2000m, 200K, etc. There are also specialized settings like 'hFE' for transistor testing. Towards the bottom right, three input jacks are visible for connecting test leads: '10ADC' (10 Amps DC), 'VΩmA' (Voltage, Resistance, Milliamps), and 'COM-' (Common/Ground). Red warning symbols indicating maximum voltage and current ratings ('MAX 1000VDC', '200mA') are present near the input jacks, signifying important safety parameters. The device appears to be in good, used condition with no significant visible damage, cracks, or excessive wear, though typical minor scuffs from use might be present on closer inspection. The legends on the face are clear and legible. No discernible manufacturing defects or repairs are apparent. Given the design and digital display, it likely dates from the late 20th to early 21st century. The 'Elenco' branding and 'M-1000B' model number are clearly visible at the bottom left of the face, serving as key identifying marks. The overall craftsmanship appears to be of standard commercial quality for an entry-level to mid-range multimeter.
