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).

... If the interior is as badly designed as those probes...

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.

[Ioannis]

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.
