Adding insult to injury for this meter, the "bargraph" only seems to have 20 segments, with 5 stripes/segment, but it is hard to know for sure from Dave's video, by lack of a suitable input signal.
I really do like the push button idea, but pushing a button 5x to rotate between functions makes it a lot less appealing.
The always on backlight, especially in combination with the fading display as soon as the batteries start to loose some charge make this meter a complete lemon.
It might be usable if the polarizer can be easily reversed and the backlight disabled, but why bother?
I do like the AN8009 though, very similar to the AN8008, but with N.C.V instead of the pulse output and it has temperature measurement (only 1deg. Celcius resolution, even though this meter can has a 1uV resolution and has plenty of room for at least an extra digit for temperature. (K thermocouple = 41mV/C.)).
The gap in the Current ranges can be solved relatively easy by using a 1 Ohm external shunt, which fits nicely with the 1uV resolution
For Electronics use I actually prefer the external shunt, because you can just leave it in the circuit and use the multimeter for other measurements without interrupting the Current.
