Duty cycle meter

Got to looking for such a meter and for a reasonable price, up popped the VC97.
Reviews on YouTube looked good so I picked one up from fleabay delivered for under $30.

My cheeepie VOM doesnt directly do % duty cycles.

Nicely cased with literally quarter sized number readouts.
Included are a hefty tipped set of leads, a set of alligator clipped
leads and a not real impressive temp probe.

The back of the case even has probe holders, a good touch.

Havent used it yet. Initially from the specs and handling it Id say
its a great buy for anyone needing a meter that includes a duty cycle.

The under $30 price includes a cloth case and a useable instruction manual.

It is nice to be able to "see" what is going on - have the right tools for the job!

Note you may need to reverse the leads to get the correct duty cycle. My multimeter reads % ON for Duty Cycle, whereas Mercedes uses % OFF.
