The replacement has come - and gone. Dead on arrival, wouldn't do anything thought it was the battery but it was totally dead. 2nd replacement came today, and its going back as well. Far from happy now - screen wouldn't display correctly unless you applied pressure to it, and the readings way off scale (unless my immersion really pulls 28A!) Annoying!
Its hardly a comparable unit but Maplin are doing one that goes down to 1mA for ÂŁ15, returning 3 faulty units has cost more and I've lost trust in the unit/supplier.

Will only get refund for the unit, postage to first deliver it then return it each time is at my cost :001_9898:

I have bought this:

Fluke 360 leakage tester:
Fluke 360. Buy online or call
It looks expensive but when you phone them the price drops right down.
Basically it's ÂŁ100 more than the Di log but with a bit of kit that's as important as a decent leakage tester I think it's worth pushing the boat out.
In future I think I will be buying all Fluke stuff, they just seem more reliable and in this game reliability is something we need to rely on.
I'm sending my Di log off for calibration, with two clamp meters at least I can verify the results of one against the other.
If the Di Log fails then it's adios amigo and refund time.

The other contender is this:

Kewtech KEW2432. Buy online or call
Has anyone tried this one?
It's got a peak hold function which the Fluke has not, peak hold function would be very useful IMO.
The Kew also has "Frequency Selector Switch to eliminate the effect of harmonics." although I don't know if this function will be any good or indeed work.
So it's USA versus Japan.

The Dilog has the frequency selector switch too if I remember right.
Bit crazy having 2 leakage clamp meters, are you looking to add a 3rd? If Dilog comes back from calibration fine but gives different readings to the Fluke which one will you trust?
