This gauss meter is a precise and well-designed tool for measuring magnetic fields. The Hall probe provides reliable readings, and the TFT screen is bright and easy to read. It can also measure rotational speed with an external magnet, making it useful for various applications. The rechargeable battery lasts around 16 hours, and the built-in stand allows for hands-free use. It comes in a sturdy case with clear instructions. The only downside is the high price and lack of data export to a PC

Pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to set up this Gauss meter. Just align the meter probe to the top and turn on. It automatically calibrates upon turning on each time, so make sure you're not near a magnetic field when starting up. Also an option to manually calibrate if needed. Tested on some magnets and seems to do a good job; very responsive and gives readings in a few seconds. Comes in a nice storage box that's well padded with foam to protect the device. Has a charging cable too; took about 1.5 hours to charge with a fast charging brick to full battery.

This is very good scientific piece of equipment and for a first-time user there is a big learning curve. Although it is serving me well, I knowl I am not using it to its full potential. As a restorer of heritage motorcycles. I needed to find a reliable way of testing the magnets and the magnetic field of motorcycle flywheels. Now this is an expensive option to take, but this does not by any means say that this device is expensive for the job it carries out. When you are constantly working on older bikes where parts are hard to find, you need a reliable way to test parts that are no longer able to be sourced. This gauss metre has really helped me in verifying when parts are working or not. Whether that's just the general magnetic field test or using the rotary auction with the hall effect sensor as the flywheel odd turning. Now I am by no mean saying what I'm using this for is ideal and as mentioned I am clearly not using it to its full potential but it is working for me so it's worth every penny. The display is nice and clear. It can be stood up using the built-in stand for one handed use and the sensor seems to be working accurately 100% of the time. It's been a game changer for me. So worth every penny.

As an undergraduate I had to use a gauss meter in the practical laboratory. It was a very different device to the one offered here by AEGTest. However, it worked on the Hall Effect principle just like this model AEG-8103. When a current-carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field, the magnetic field causes a voltage difference across the conductor. This, known as the Hall voltage, is proportional to the strength of the magnetic field.In use, the meter sends a test current through the probe which is attached to a lead. The Hall Effect produces a voltage that the meter records. This is displayed as the strength of the magnetic field, in units of Gauss (switchable to mTesla; 1 Tesla = 10,000 Gauss). The meter will also indicate the polarity of the field - either North or South pole. There are facilities to record readings, and sound an alarm if the strength of the magnetic field exceeds a user set value. This can be used in Quality Control testing. Information is displayed on a small but bright and clear screen.A short press of the on-off button brings up the menu page giving access to the different modes. The meter can be used to detect the regular passing of a magnetic field. It can count the number of events, and can calculate the number of events over a given time period and display as miles or kilometres an hour. Mostly, of course, this is employed by placing a magnet on a rotating shaft.This meter is a very neat hand-held unit. It is powered by an internal rechargeable battery via a USB-C port. A USB cable is provided but no charger. All is contained in a hard shell padded plastic storage box. There is a very comprehensive and readable manual provided. The one thing missing, at least I could not find it mentioned, is a facility for downloading results via the USB cable to a PC. Otherwise, this is a quite excellent meter.

This is a nice magnetic Tesla, gauss meter comes in handy when doing science experiments and demonstrations and for work and development of magnetic apparatus’sQuite a powerful tool since it’s got a lot more features than just plain magnetic field measurement.

I was immediately impressed when I opened this. It comes in a well-fitted carrying case that almost looks like a small pistol case. The latches on it actually work well, compared to many carrying cases I've received that are a waste of plastic. The padding is shaped exactly for the gauss meter, and there's space for the charging cable and probe. Getting started was a breeze: I just had to rotate the connector until it found the correct orientation, then I pulled back on the release ring, which enabled it to plug in and click into locked position. Turning it on was relatively intuitive, I just held the big button in the middle until it turned on. The only thing I needed to refer to the manual about was the readings. I didn't realize the black plastic unit is the cover over the probe, not the probe itself (I hadn't referred to the photo or manual yet). Once I did, I realized I needed to unscrew and remove it. Then, I zeroed it by holding the zero button until it read about 0. It fluctuates a little around 0 rather than staying locked on 0, but the manual says that's normal. It's very small values, and I'd rather see some activity indicating it's actually working. I tested it on a magnet and saw results immediately, so it's working. I don't have any calibration devices to use as a baseline to compare against, but the readings seemed consistent when the probe is the same distance from the same magnetic field, so that's a good sign. Overall, I'm pleasantly surprised by this little meter.

I have the version which has 5% accuracy. That is perfectly sufficient for almost all usage except perhaps laboratory use.Well thought out controls, just three buttons. It is sensitive enough to detect the Earth's magnetic field, but also deals quite happily with Neodymium Bar magnets.I tried it out on my compass, wondering if it could detect the needle - it could, which surprised me a little since the needle is sealed within a fluid filled capsule, so you can't put the hall effect device right on the needle.An ideal device for testing if things which should be magnetized actually are, and those which are not supposed to be are not.
