Tried 3, all plastic garbage that make my aging TES 2712 budget DMM look like a pro.

Seems like the probes are very bad. Did you try to short directly at the multimeter sockets?

Nope. I didn't even want to try. If the interior is as badly designed as those probes, I don't want to have to deal with that. I know the probes are outsourced, but that's just a sign of really shoddy quality. I know I didn't pay a lot, but still, that is ridiculous.

I'm returning them to AliExpress and going to buy some at local hardware store. At least there I can hold the probes and test them before buying (gonna bring some batteries and screwdrivers).

I am pretty sure it is!

Started the refund process for all 3 on AliExpress. I didn't have high expectations, there's several malcontent remarks on the web about this process.

They've completed 1 full refund within minutes, the other 2 are still in process. Honestly, I didn't expect any action until nightfall due to time zones.

I supplied the videos, and described the refund as "not working properly". I think some might have said "not satisfied" or some other option which might put some blame on the user.

Absolutely. Not satisfied means, OK it works but not as good as I expected.

Not working is totally different. And one should be solid about that.

AliExpress made full refunds, money was back in PayPal in minutes.

Glad you got full refund.

That's great.

I expected them to ask for a return on the items. Turns out they don't seem to care, since shipping would probably cost them more than the value of the items.

I'll wait a few days, then start shopping for decent probes. :D

I also thing the shipping cost are more than the crap they sell! Never had to return anything. Just send them to recycle bin.
