ANENG AN8001, 6000 count true RMS Multimeter for $14.

(1/16) > >>

upsss:
Has anyone seen or better yet have one of these http://www.ebay.com/itm/Digital-Multimeter-6000-counts-Backlight-AC-DC-Ammeter-Voltmeter-Portable-Meter-/192021771043?hash=item2cb563b323:g:IhsAAOSwal5YIVhS? 

It looks like it is brand new, no reviews or any reference to it on Google.  Almost sounds too good to be true for $14 shipped.  What I like about it is that you can perform all but the 10A measurement without switching leads.  I am NOT very careless but still I go through fuses after measuring current and then trying to measure voltage without switching leads.

I found it also on Aliexpress with a couple different names and model numbers with more detail specs.  Aliexpress search sucks, so the best way to find it there is to search for, 6000 count Multimeter.

Looks like a cheap chinese DMM, what Dave would call a 'one hung low'
Avoid if you plan to do any work on live mains electricity (even just the occasional check for mains!)

upsss:
I would wait for some reviews or at least some internal pictures before condemning it!

Vgkid:
Doesn't look to bad. Of course someone will have to buy one for us to know more about it.
I'am curious to see how it stacks up to the 830 variants.

Gyro:
I'm really not a fan of DMMs that share the mA ranges with the Voltage inputs. To my mind it's far too easy to accidentally short the input and show up any weaknesses in the input protection and fusing. Obviously it's less of problem for low energy circuits than its stated rating, but nuisance fuse blowing is still an issue.
