content: I'd like to see how it's built inside, it should be a rebadged like all RS-PRO (ex ISO-TECH) instruments.Anyone know who's the real manufacturer? Maybe I could find some teardown videos or images.https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/digital-multimeters/1445337/

content: Thank you guys. I've seen some videos and a teardown of it and concluded that probably it's not a good choice for that price.

content: Quote from: sotos on February 28, 2018, 12:05:13 pmA number of people do like the Micsig scope. People also like a number of modestly priced DMMs. I've never seen a combined instrument that has much popularity, does either job well, or offers a good replacement for a reasonably priced scope plus a reasonably priced DMM.
