On my multimeter, the voltage readings get inaccurate over time due to battery discharge. My meters all use 9 volt batteries.
How can I tell when to change out the batteries?
Thanks.
Sounds like time to change the multimeter instead! Cheers Phil Hobbs (A fan of Tektronix DMM916s from eBay)

Have you tried one of the lithium rechageable PP3 / 6F22 , they have inbuilt BMS which switches out the battery for protection when it gets to about 6V. The EBL ones do this. C+
I have a couple HP3455A Voltmeters.
