I was planning to pass up the 117C. I obviously don't need another handheld multimeter. But between Darren's review and the size comparison to the Fluke 117, I'm greatly tempted. The ergonomics of the 117 are great, it fits my hand perfectly, and is a pleasure to handle. While not a great bench meter, the 117 is my go-to general purpose household meter. Not too small and fiddly like a pocket meter, and not too bulky like my Brymans and 87V. It's pretty clear the 117C was intended as a clone of the Fluke 117. The only real gripe is same as for the Fluke 117 -- no mA range. The Fluke 117 is intended as an electrician's meter so it kinda makes sense for such a 6K count meter to have no mA range, so putting 60K counts in a clone of said electrician's meter but still with no mA range doesn't make much sense to me. So really the extra counts are a gimmick, but otherwise it does look like a great meter for the money. I may just have to add it to my collection...

If you have the opportunity, time and desire, or someone else from the owners, please do a TrueRMS test on a non-sinusoidal signal. Earlier (https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/uni-t-launches-the-ut117c-multimeter/msg4969246/#msg4969246)  we saw a courtesy result on sine. 117C is not bad at all. The measurement was even at different limits. But it looks like it was only a sine.

I did a simple test of the frequency response of UT117C, all my meters have not been calibrated, it is for reference only.
