hodge911 Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 Inherited these along with other stuff but I,ll never use them so wondering if they have any value Have all original cases and paperwork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonka54 Posted November 22, 2021 Report Share Posted November 22, 2021 Yes I think they would have some value, both look professional standard, although old looking models they both look as though they measure in AC/DC and resistance. Multi meters are very useful to any body who even remotely, does anything electrical. and most DIYers or hobbyists will need one at some point, but they would usually go for cheaper ones not the pro standard. But any electrical student just beginning their courses would be glad of those without doubt, Also you said "along with other stuff", if this is also electrical test equipment such as Ammeters, RCD meters, clamp testers or earth loop testers etc. etc. Then you should be on to a winner.

In the 60s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vmaxphil Posted November 23, 2021 Report Share Posted November 23, 2021 Unfortunately with cheap digital multimeters costing about a tenner I would think very little value Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_R Posted November 24, 2021 Report Share Posted November 24, 2021 I had a couple of pieces of Eagle branded test equipment back in the late 70's/ early 80's. It would likely have come from Tandy/Radio Shack or possibly Maplin when they were still mostly mail order. They were a decent option on a budget. I've no idea on the Normatest item. Some people collect this sort of thing, but I suspect the values are pretty low. Nice to see them still around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
