Can you give an example of when this might happen...?
Their automatic measurements of the display record also cause inconsistent measurements.
You had to go down to $350 Rigols to see that these days and once you're aware that it exists then it's much less of a problem.
(we're back to "know how it works" again, and I'm not sure if there's a price level where that stops being true)
I have had problems in the past with multimeters which change input resistance with range. What do you do when one range says 100.00 and another says 101.0? That may not seem like much of an error but it absolutely is.
Sure, but I've got cheap-ass multimeters that
don't do that.
AFAICT there's real stinkers from all manufacturers at all levels. Spending more money is no guarantee in itself.
