Just stumbled across this while looking for other stuff... Not sure if $6 ea plus $6 shipping is overall a good price for fleaBay as I'm rarely searching for resistors of such low tolerance (I know reel end lots can occasionally be had for a steal), but DigiKey's 1/ea pricing is $US15-50 for similar from Vishay Precision. Also they're coming from the UK, so may be a boon for you of the tea & biscuits crowd.

No, not the UK, from Poland. I've used these people a few times and indeed used a few of the low values of exactly those Sfernice resistors to repair the bottom two resistors on my Vishay precision decade box. Fast, reliable and definitely selling genuine stock. I'm close enough to volt-nuttery to be able to confirm the values of high precision resistors and the ones from them were all well within specification (including tempco).

Interesting one this time. The thing is a Brymen albeit a shit one that looks like it was trying to rip off an iPod. It apparently has CAT and UL rating and spark gaps, MOVs and protection resistors according to online sources. I will take it to bits and post photos. It is a 4000 count autoranger with capacitance, frequency and hold. Might chuck this in the car as the "car multimeter" to replace the ancient forgotten the part number Uni-T that lives out there. Someone already did reviews here so I will skip that bit: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/brymen-bm22s-and-bm27s-pocket-multimeter-review/

Oh, one of those. Yeah, wasn't that keen on it when I saw it in Volt Log's roundup of pocket DMMs. But, not bad for free.

Interesting comparison and Volt Log gives the BM22s top rating and says it has all the protection that you would expect on a decent bench meter, so as long as you don't poke any high energy sources it looks to be pretty decent, especially for free :-+

Had a play with it. Not terrible and is bang on. Don’t have time to take it to bits so it has gone to the car. Clearly better than no brand cheap one but totally useless for electronics. No current measurement, no banana jacks and weighs so little it won’t stay anywhere.
I will use it for checking which fuse my Fiat ate.
Specmaster:
bd139, I assume that the Rigol AWG you purchased was the DG1022U correct? If so did you spot the other one on Amazon that got 5 star reviews, DG1022Z?
