You are aware that maximum for mA input range is 55mA on the 121GW, for larger current you must use the A input.

Well there's why it won't measure 90 mA in the mA range then! :-DD

That is part of the "Low burden voltage", the high mA range is moved to the A input.
It is not that the meter is missing a range, it has one or two current ranges more than most other multimeters. It has 7 current ranges, typically a meters has 5 or 6 current ranges.

Cool, thanks for the information. I would never have guessed that as there is no indication on the meter around the jacks and I haven't read the manual.
Thanks again :-+

There is a indication, the A terminal is marked "A 500mA", because it is both ampere and 500mA range.
