No current measurement (despite "Ammeter" in the listing title). Very poor parameters. This is basically an electrician tool. But I'm not sure that actual electricians will want some sketchy tool from eBay.

The capacitance input is separate and where the current input would normally go.  Strange it would be separate in the first place but  then the show the meter measuring an alum elec with the lead in the normal input and the meter displaying uF.

I was about to say: "Those are probably not real photos. I you look closely you'll see that the leads are at exactly the same angle in every picture (Instead of the first one), even though the meters position is slightly different"
But while editing a picture to make my point, I found that there are unexplainable differences.
I don't want this to go to waste, so meh, there's the pic made of four layers on top of each other to show that there is no difference, but there is.
