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.
