Maybe i got lucky but my UT61E+ measures 0.05 ohms with the leads it came with shorted together.

my unit ut61E+ measures 0.06 with the tips short and my old and faithful unit ut61C 0.7, I can't complain the reel fincion does the rest :scared:

mi unit ut61E+ mide 0.06 con las puntas en corto y mi viejo y fiel unit ut61C 0.7, no me puedo quejar la fincion reel hace el resto

Really good leads btw, with sharp and thin tips, and no guard rings, so very convenient and excellent for electronics. Proper silicone wires, of course. The only cons is hard plastic probe body, I'd prefer some softer material. And maybe it makes sense to add some heat shrink insulation on the tips to leave only a short length exposed to prevent accidental shorting of things. The coating on the tips does wear over time, but they are sold with a set of spare tips, and more spare tips can be bought separately.

Why do we need ultra low ohms leads? A good meter should be able to apply an offset (REL or a memory function) for test leads shorted ohms.
Look for meter feature rather than trying to buy "expensive" leads.

And with little CAT III 2000V, 20A crocodile clips!
That superconductivity clearly pays off...

Joking aside, these leads are good. There seem to be a new type now, with shorter non-coated tips, I haven't tried those. I'm using the other type, with the longer, coated tips.

...and yes, the stock Brymen tips are resting on the shelf. Yes, these BST leads are better for me. No way I'm going back to thick tips.
