A megger mft1552 or a Metrel MI3100 Eurotest Easi 17th Edition Tester? The metrel is £75ish cheaper - is the megger still a better buy - any opinions welcome as i have no real experience of either. Thanks

Hombres,
Anyone else have trouble with the lead crocs on the Megger MFT? They give me wildly varying readings depending on how they're connected, size of cable, single core/multi-strand, standing on one leg or two, time of month, etc.
Anyone have any recommendations for a better replacement set?
