I don't understand German, but for those who do, this person has done a couple of multimeter reviews

You can turn on captions and set automatic translation to English--the result is not too bad.

...Nice. I just took a quick look. He also had an DOA Agilent Multimeter U1273A.
They also claimed they couldn't check if it's under still warranty....WTF?!?!?! I had other experience.

Come on Agilent....work on your QC!

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried that and noticed the translate captions says beta.  After watching for a few minutes, I decided that for this video, the term "beta" is being overly generous.

It is interesting technology and could be the beginnings of the Universal translator.
