Hi John,
I'm not sure how I managed to miss this post - the forum software isn't very good at alerting us to posts that are awaiting approval. Apologies!
Good luck with the meter. These are certainly pretty incredibly for the money - not perfect, but nothing is. In fact, owning both an AN8008 and an AN8002 covers all bases (the 8008 has microamps, but isn't so good at low milliamps, whereas the AN8002 lacks microamps but does milliamps perfectly). 1nV resolution is into serious high-end territory. There's been a lot of chat about them on UKVRRR and EEVblog as well. The real question is how well do they hold up over time. Even so, you can have 10 of these for the price of one Fluke 115, and this meter does some things better, so for low-energy electronics bench work, these are a cracking deal.
Cheers,
Mark
