My experience with the probes is that a light brush with a fiberglass pen help a lot. |

Even my AN860B+ is much better than that. eg. For 5V DC: AN8008 reads 5.004V, AN860B+ reads 5.000V For 1kOhms: AN8008 reads 1003 \$\Omega\$, AN860B+ reads 1001 \$\Omega\$ --- End quote --- You are seeing +/- 0.1% accuracy on a DMM with +/- 0.5% specifications. I would say that it is pretty good for a sub $20 multimeter. |

I guess if you watch Dave's video closely he's not getting much better results than me. |

(I noted in my original post that I'm aware that the meter is in spec) |
