All but one (the 5th) were still cached in my browser, so i took the liberty of copying them to an imgur album.

Here's the album link : http://imgur.com/a/HVjvU

There's only a 49 page thread about this multimeter on this forum, how did you get to 130 posts without stumbling into it?

See  https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/uni-t-ut61e-multimeter-teardown-photos/

It's a very good multimeter for the money it costs.

There's a detailed 4 part review of the meter here, if the thread above doesn't satisfy you.. here's the 1st part:

Great meter, just keep an eye out for drift and don't hook it up to anything high energy.

The meter with the external Vref mod and thermistor/resistance in series it's stable to the last digit.
It's just a matter of watch the long tome drift, of the mod.
You can change the 2K (VR1) trumpet that drift 1% only from vibration, for one with 50Ohm, and get it more stable.

This is on my list of todo items. Not sure if I want to do the simple pot change or add in the external vref. Might add in the backlight hack as well. My meter is stable at the moment so I may hold off.

Check out this mod, for backlight and more.

With a MSP430G2211 and you've the code in there.

See the this topic for external Vref mod, https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/ut61e-drift-and-recalibration/ , and some research on the Ohm and Cap range to make it more accurate.
