Seems a bit shill-y to me, I saw him last winter and none of his "reviews" seem to hold much water. Always hyper positive, and that seems to distract from item flaws.

Have you seen him before? This dmm is cheap right now - VERY cheap, but have you heard of it or of him?

Thanks.... And this is the dmm:

[EDIT] Received DMM today, VERY cute, very nice - will test. The app is superb. Also find attached the manual (not found ANYWHERE online - I scanned it on my iPhone "Notes" app - VERY useful function btw!)

Assume all YouTube reviewers are shills.

The few that aren't will stand out.

It can be hard to tell the shills from the over enthusiastic.

Find attached the manual for the Aneng V05B Bluetooth Smart digital multimeter. I scanned this on my iPhone, as I don't want MORE microsocopic Chinese "manuals" lingering around:

Fantastic little DMM, and the app is superb. It’s perfect for £12.30 - cheaper than AliExpress!

Jeeez that guy needs to turn it down a few notches, his manner makes him sound like an empty head no-nothing unboxer content farm "reviewer", but clearly he does have some knowledge, a shame I couldn't bring myself to watch it all.
