For all of the good it is not likely to do, I have queried an ebay seller about the AN8008's +/-5uV dead spot.

What do you expect to find out from a seller? They just pile 'em high and sell 'em.

What do you expect to find out from a seller? They just pile 'em high and sell 'em.Can only hope that it gets back to the manufacturer. I realize that the seller is likely to have no idea of what I'm asking about.

This is actually a good play. The seller will likely see the query and immediately have a sinking in their heart. They may then send you an apologetic message begging forgiveness and give you the mean tortuous overlord spiel and offer you a measly two dollar refund in exchange for positive feedback, to avoid the beatings you know...
I have been contacted by Zotek who claim to be the original designer and manufacturer of the AN8008

Is that the one where they make a meter with milliamp and temperature ranges so that everybody who just bought a couple of AN8008s will have to go out and buy some more meters?

My AN8008 died and couldn't do ohms. Either the decimal point jumped around constantly or getting wandering 40-60ohms with input jack shorted. Test leads are ok. Checked all soldering re-did PTC but same problem.
Looks like oxide on the rotary switch contacts, spun it back and forth a few times and it's ok for now.
Gold on the PCB with copper alloy for the wiper, I guess the metal is crap, or the Krytox lube I used is causing troubles.

This indicates to me that the ZT109 has a +/-20uv dead spot. This would bother me.

You buy a $20 meter then can't sleep at night because it has a +/-20uv dead spot? Schadenfreude.

For that price I'm expecting a Higgs detector.
Seriously it's a damn good meter for the money, though temperature would be handy and I'd pay a bit more to have that. Save carrying two meters.
