Good multimeter. I bought one yesterday for $45, so this is $9 off. When I picked it up in-store, the staff member mentioned that they are clearing these out - and not getting any more.
The multimeter has temperature probes, regular probes, alligator clips, and an induction clamp (can read engine RPM). It is auto ranging.
Eg, this model seems NOT to have AutoRanging (more to think about + greater chance of error when measuring diff quantities, in succession).
In the videos I saw, cases were opened & risks pointed out..
The Dick Smith model does have Auto Ranging.
Hmmm… why so many Options (for dial setting)…?
@IVI: Zoom into image on DS and you will see that it is semi-autoranging. Full autorange on voltage and resistance, half-autorange on amperage (micro A, milli A, up to 10A) and RPM, and no autorange on temperature and frequency. Cylinder dwell, temp and freq took up 3/4 of the selector dial.
I am looking for a multi-meter, but not sure if it's good for microelectronics applications.
Google EEVBlog multimeter spreadsheet for some comparisons, and check out Dave's YouTube videos (EEVBlog).
Thank you! That's one insane list. XD

For those considering purchase of a [generic, not automotive] Multimeter, there are some Excellent comparative videos on YouTube.
One guy compares each of a range of test-bench gear (1 / video), in longer, in-depth tests with lotsa details.
AliExpress, etc. may have the same item, at [slightly] lower cost, but no local, walk-in warranty…. yet. :-/
