I had some thoughts earlier in an earlier topic bit curious if anyone went ahead with it?
Anyway a lot of the older DMMs have clocking that ultimately determines how fast it comes up with a reading. Because of this clocking, DMMs can take several hundred milliseconds to make a reading, some DMMs up to a half a second to refresh.
I don't have any of the really modern DMMs that are much faster, but perhaps an overclock of 500ms refresh rate (2 samples/second) to 250ms (4 samples/second) would make it nicer. I suspect that jitter would worsen. Also not sure how the LCD will respond to faster updates, it may just blur out or something.
Anyone tried, and what issues did you run across? What brand/chipset meter was it? Was it worth it?
