HoldPeak current probes HP-605X, any good ?

Microcheap:
Hantek also has a 650A version of this probe with bigger clamp opening

Hobby73:
Thanks, but this 650 model with the larger jaws is not designed for low power circuts like the CC-65.  At the lowest ranges, the CC-65 is 1mv/10mA.  The 650 is 1mv/100mA.  (These specs are from the manuals on their website, the product page description has some errors).

The parasitic drain on a typical auto battery is 20 - 75mA.  So I need a low power clamp with large jaws, not the typical combination of features.

If I were only interested in measuring cranking amps when starting the engine (measuring hundreds of amps, not milliamps), this 650 unit would be a good fit.

screwbreaker:
The 650A is also 400 Hz only

If you are able to bring a current probe to Argentina, one very interesting oldie but goodie probe is the Fluke Y8100. Since you are talking about parasitic currents, I wouldn't expect it to require a very high bandwidth (this one is specified up to 1kHz).

I have one and I love it!
 

Microcheap:
Is the data logging featuring a must for you? If not, the Uni-t UT210E clamp meter has a 1mA resolution at the 2A DC range and it cost less than a Hantek CC-65, but I think you have already considered it.
