  I just got this today. ( 01/30/2016) It looks and has the feel of a professional meter like Fluke. The probes are thick and feel solid. I have owned about 10 meters since I took an interest in electronics in high school. I tried the NCV and it does work quite well. You have to bring the unit close to the circuit you are testing. I am quite sure the sensor which is in the top side, is an inductive type. It also flashes and beeps at the same time. I measured a .33 Ohm precision wire wound resistor and it showed more than 0.50 Ohms. The manual says to subtract the resistance in the probes before making a measurement. By (subtracting), according to the manual, it says to "Short" or touch the probes together to measure the inherent or line resistance. Yes, there is resistance even in the probe wires no matter how long or short they are. After correcting the measurement, the average resistance was right. In other words, this meter is extremely accurate. I have not yet measured Capacitance, but I will shortly. The Frequency function does work well and the white back light is very appealing and warm to view at. So, I will give this unit 5 Stars for performance and accuracy. The price was right at $31.99. Common opinion(s) say that a quality meter in the medium range of $50 is a great deal. For the money, this meter with high quality and accuracy, is a steal. If Dr. Meter makes a higher capacity/higher performance meter or an inductive clamp Ammeter, I will get it.

  I received a shock collar for training my dog as a Christmas gift. I was under the impression that the collar was in fact resistant to water completely. However, it was not and once my dog jumped in the water for a retrieve the unit was submerged and damaged. I emailed the company and told them of the problem and was immediately sent a new unit with no questions within two business days! I was made aware of the water resistant specifications and now have a brand new properly working shock collar.
