Hi Boredatwork,
That explains why some 'ISO-Tech' products appear better made than others

I recently purchased the ISO-Tech 1332A Lux meter and the very nice IDM305 multimeter, brand new, boxed and sealed, at very wallet friendly prices. They appear very well made using quality materials and good build practices such as HRC fuses etc.
For info to all, ISO-Tech/RS has recently changed it's brand colours from 'light grey& red' to 'dark grey & green' and the older light grey/red stock appears to have been 'dumped' onto third party test equipment dealers for onward sale at prices approaching a third to one quarter of that in the RS catalogue.
I don't know the OEM of these meters but I remain impressed with the quality. The stated specs on the IDM305 are very near to those of my Fluke 87 series III and it has all the bells and whistles that a bored tech could wish for
