Wonder what battery life it gets with a lithium coin cell?
That looks pretty good!UL listed too!Who is the EOM for this?Available under other brands?Not quite a pocket meter in my book as it has separate leads, but very small.
I don't know who actually makes this meter for Southwire, it seems to be a unique design of their's contracted to some production house in China, I can't find any other version of it. Southwire does make other meters that I haven't seen elsewhere too: http://nextgenmeters.southwiretools.com/
So... what's the dimensions? If we're talking about separate leads and a pouch then a Fluke 101 isn't exactly huge.(130 mm x 65 mm x 27mm to be exact)

I live near a large Lowes. I'll see if they have one in stock and run it if they do.
CEM's sure makes a lot of multimeters: http://www.mgi.com.uy/images/pdf/cem-instrumentos-digitales/cem--multimeter.pdf Check out that DT-9998 on the last page. Wow, everything but the kitchen sink!
Only had time to do a quick google search for the fuse pictured in one of the open case photos above. "astm hv510.0.2 fuse"So far all I found was a PDF link for ASTM fuses, in the list it shows the 200ma fuse as "510.0.2"Hope these fuses are not hard to find. Looks like a decent backup meter, for a coat pocket.

Easy enough to find, but not cheap: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Klein-Tools-200mA-600-Volt-Replacement-Fuse-69031/206825588?cm_mmc=Shopping%7cTHD%7cG%7c0%7cG-BASE-PLA-D27E-Electrical%7c&gclid=CL28qqKnrNICFU1WDQodYdYABQ&gclsrc=aw.ds
If there is anything you would like me to check, now is the time to ask. I'm getting close to the destructive part of the testing.

It's always auto ranging and there's no min/max function. ... more on this...Apparently this is a modification of CEM's DMP-3x series of pocket meters: http://www.cem-instruments.com/en/Goods/detail/id/686/pid/768/pids/1136#Modified for UL compliance no doubt, by adding an HRC fuse and maybe other protection.

Wow, everything but the kitchen sink!The full version of this meter looks pretty cool (I think that this is a DMP-33 despite the labeling on the face)
