This is a nice meter. It seems as well built as my old HD Beckman DMM, and that was the best there was in build quality..nicer than the F brand in my opinion.Mine came with a plastic case, a set of leads, and an extra negative lead that has an alligator clip. That's handy, because it lets me test in mid air. Just clip one wire, hold the other wire against the positive lead with one hand, hold the meter with the other and press the button. I thought I'd use the locking function more than I do, but it's actually easier to just hold the button. That lets you hold the lead and release the test button, which auto drains the voltage off the wires. If you just keep the leads hot, you can test, but with good and long wires, there's enough capacitance to hold a charge on the lines and give you an annoying shock.All in all, very happy. If you don't need more than 2000 MOhm at 1kV, this is a very good deal. No issue with battery drain, and not sure how you would, as the main switch seems to turn off power to everything.

Better than expected. I would have given it 5 stars, but the owner's manual is not very good and the screws holding the back in place are difficult to remove and reinstall. (I don't use it enough to leave the batteries in the unit for long periods of inactivity.) It should be easier to install and remove the batteries.

Purchased this for what I thought was a one time use, needed a 1000v megohmmeter to test cable insulation. Since receiving this product I was also able to retire my older multimeter. I did a lot of research prior to my purchase since I needed the tool for 1 job therefore not wanting to spend too much. This tool has all the features as other units costing $100's more, I am very happy with this purchase.

Insulation resistance testing gave inaccurate information that caused me a week in delays and a waste of time and money. Requested replacement wire that was supposedly faulty. Bought a Klein tester from Amazon and the that was “faulty†was actually perfect. Contacted EXTECH and they said nothing useful except to send the meter in for calibration. Just gonna send the whole thing back for a refund.

Cheap to buy, expensive to calibrate

For the money you can't go wrong. The thing works. Maybe it's not a Fluke, but how many of us need a Fluke? Buy it.
