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

Mine seems to be about 4 or 5 counts high on most readings. Within spec, but not impressive.

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\$

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.

Yes, but there's been a lot of people saying how accurate it is and the AN860B+ is also a $20 meter but it does much better.

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

If you happen to have an excellent AN860B+ and an average AN8008, then the AN8008 may appear to be inferior.

That's why I asked what everybody else is seeing.

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