1. Each display method has its own strengths: what is the first reaction of many people when they see a digital multimeter? I will definitely think, wow, how good this multimeter is, the measurement can be displayed directly in numbers, and I don't need to read it, how convenient! Well, that was overheard by an electrician who likes to use analog multimeters, he retorted. The biggest advantage of the pointer watch is that its pointer swings, which can intuitively show the change of the properties of the measured object, which is more convenient than the digital watch.

From the above point of view, it can be said that it is indistinguishable. However, the digital watch also has a more prominent feature, that is, it can generally be made very small and portable, which is slightly better than the pointer watch. As for the problem of backlight, I think there are some better forehead watches, but that's not the case.


2. The design uses are different: Generally speaking, everyone subconsciously thinks that the digital multimeter is a tool suitable for measuring precision instrument devices and small overloads. Compared with the pointer multimeter, the accuracy will also be relatively high. Intuitive and accurate. The pointer multimeter is considered suitable for measuring large overloads (this also has some relationship with the working principle of the pointer). So it depends on the nature of the work of the electrician, and what the commonly used measuring objects of the multimeter are. As for the problem of resistance to falling, I personally think that the digital watch is slightly better, after all, the swinging pointer is a precise and flexible physical device.
