ideas for handheld multimeters (cheap) bags ?

[plouf]

hello

i face the problem that i have a bag with many tools including one-two (cheap) multimeters
these multimetrs come without bag, and leaving probes loosy , get cut, etc

i am looking for some bag that can easy get in/out multimeter with probes conected (not having the need to insert remove every time)

The most well designed soft-bag is the Agilent which is made for the U1272A / U1273A.

If you measure the dimensions of your meter, I could have a look if this soft bag can handle your needs.
Regarding pricing the bag it is friedly priced.  U1174A

at the moment needing something for UT33A uni-Trend  and Avidsen 107101 which they are small and smallest

Yes, for an Agilent it may be the best solution to buy the bag Kiriakos mentioned.... for your meters it's probably too big.

Maybe you could also twist the probes around the meter and use some tissue to fold in the meter. I know these neoprene wraps for photo equipment. They look like:

If you prefer a real bag, you could also check out a local outdoor store. They often have bags in several sizes for GPS, Cameras and all that stuff. Maybe you can get something there.
Last but not least: Ebay. Just search for multimeter cases and check the dimensions.

Ok I am following your thoughts, but here we get in to a technicality, those meters is not made for out-door use, and no one planed a case for them.

The soft bags for compact video cameras it could possibly be the best choice for you, but the pricing would be around 16-20 EUR, I believe that the Agilent soft bag is somewhere there too.

I have see smaller cases for multimeters at 6-8 EUR at small shops which sale electronic parts, but what you will possibly find is a very generic nylon design with a zipper.

My believe is that the soft bag which does not have inner soft walls (pillows), it is not worth getting it.

I can mention the case to use a DSLR case if it suit the meter size with top handle and many inner slot for many accessories of DMM as alligator clips  for example
