I normally only buy fluke but it was a crazy price.

I got one of these in the end. Seems to work for what I use if for.

This would be my aspirational meter
Today I've got this little Kewtech chap and while not as good, he has helped me a few times.

Am just a bit weary of going under £150 as I know some brands just throw a few quid on for the name , but in general you get what you pay for

I have a Kaise SK7815 (no longer required) for sale if you are interested not used but has been in my store for some time case and Voltage leads as well PM me if you are interested

Kewtech is a good price, but doesn't look so good for low leakage currents.

 

[Pete999]

The Kaise has a mili A, A and Voltage ranges

Was the Handyman one the same model that a few people on here had problems with a while back?

 

[LeeH]

Not sure, what we're the issues?

 

[mattg4321]

They didn't work properly giving random results I think.

Think happyhippydad had one from memory.

I have recently bought the Martindale CM69. Well made, accurate but expensive at £290. I needed the low pass filter has a resolution of 0.001mA on the 6mA range.
