content: I got given this a couple of weeks ago so thought I would post a tear down as I have not come across this brand Limit before. It appears to retail for around the $275 NZD mark here. Full specs are at the bottom of the post. Have played around with it a bit and seems to be ok.My first post as well

content: This looks like a re-badged Uni-T UT61D perhaps? Not sure though.The price seems unreasonably high if that is in fact the case.

content: Quote from: mspec on August 13, 2017, 02:13:35 amIt's a sub $100 multimeter, so whoever pays that price is being ripped off (close to being scammed).

content: Yes seems way over priced for what it is, was given it as somebody came across it in a auction box and did not want it. Another quick look on pricing is actually $300 to $325 NZD which is even worse.

content: At least they put in the ceramic stove fuses, not the cheaper glass ones, but of course skimped out on the MOV again.

content: Check this out, they are being sold in Australia as well. $181 AU for a Limit rebadged Uni-T 58 series which goes for about $40.https://www.toolmart.com.au/limit-128590106.htmlThe Uni-T 58 being sold at Altronics is $80 which is about right after import and markup.http://www.altronics.com.au/p/q1067-28-range-digital-multimeter/Should trade in my Uni-T 71D at Toolmart would probably get $800-900 for it.This one made me laugh as well 2200% (twenty two thousand percent) markup.https://www.toolmart.com.au/measuring-tools/precision-measuring/kincrome-08101.htmlhttp://www.ebay.com/itm/272767847124
