Question: What are the differences between the tt1200a and tt1000a?
ANSWER: This tester redefines temperature testing with its advanced features, offering enhanced
capabilities compared to its predecessor, the TT1000A. It displays temperature in both °C and °F, along
with millivoltage in °C. Notably, it covers the full K type thermocouple range of 1372ºC and displays
temperature with increased precision to 0.1°C. The device features a backlit 16-character alphanumeric
display with user prompts, making it user-friendly. One significant improvement is the elimination of the
need for a separate hard-to-find 45V battery for insulation tests; instead, it utilizes common "C"
batteries for all functions. The batteries are easily accessible without disassembly or tools.
