The multimeter features horizontal orientation, a 4” full-color LCD screen, and Bluetooth capabilities.

The Snap-on Advanced Digital Multimeter, No. EEDM596FK, is designed for technicians performing advanced automotive functions and standard electrical circuit/component testing. The Advanced Digital Multimeter features horizontal orientation and a 4” full-color LCD screen, which is 115 percent larger than Snap-on predecessors, according to the company.

The multimeter’s exclusive app captures, stores, and shares real-time readings via Bluetooth remote display on the technician’s own smartphone. Technicians can download the free app on either Apple or Android devices, and immediately start capturing desired readings and communicating directly with customers and other technicians via text, email, or social media.

“Combining the fan-favorite features and advanced automotive functions of our previous multimeters with a horizontal orientation, built-in tilt stand to showcase the full-color, 4″ LCD screen, plus a free, exclusive app that reads, stores, and shares results, makes for one powerful tool for techs," says David Brekke, a Snap-on Tools product manager. “The app displays, graphs, and stores measurements in real-time on the techs’ device, which can be shared with vehicle owner via text, email, or social media. The multimeter also features a Hybrid CATIV rating, and a unique customer-requested lead storage wrap.”
