The Simpson 260 7M is a rugged, accurate, compact, easy to use instrument. It measures AC and DC Voltage, Direct Current, Resistance, Decibels, and Output Voltage. Test leads are included with this meter. An OFF/Transit position is added to the function switch to protect the meter movement during transit. Batteries have been removed as a caution in the shipping. There are two batteries in the ohmmeter circuit. One is a NEDA 13F size D cell and furnishes 1.5 volts for the R x 1 and R x 100 ranges. A NEDA 1604 battery furnishes 9 volts for the R x 10,000 ranges. The technical data of this meter is copied and included with this instrument. The mirrored dial is provided to eliminate a parallax. This meter has a roll top cover for added protection.
