WHAT IS THE MAKE AND MODEL?  As long as you fail to include
this minimal information, it is just a junk of chinese noname garbage.

Hint:  we don't believe you when you say it is better than a fluke.  
And BTW, its specs suck.  1% to 6% accuracy?  Give me a break.  It might
as 
well be a 2 digit meter.  Reminds me a sinclair LED meter from the 70's.
The last digit is just noise.
