Quick delivery! I've only had this a few minutes, but my first impressions are very good. It seems solidly made, it's a good size, marginally slimmer than my regular DMM but about 15mm longer. Basic measurements compare OK against another DMM - I don't have a precision calibrated meter to hand but it seems to read very slightly lower for voltage, but it's a very small difference. Whether the bigger error is in my other meter or the Mustool is moot as far as I'm concerned; I didn't buy this as a precision voltage meter, I bought it for its versatility, and my main interest is its built-in oscilloscope function, of which I was skeptical, given the use of regular multimeter probes and that claims for pocket oscilloscopes usually seem to be exaggerated, sometimes wildly so. I haven't explored the extent to which it can live up to its "40MHz" claim - I'm expecting significant attenuation and distortion at that sort of frequency, but then I have a couple of bench oscilloscopes for that kind of thing. In the more practical realm of the modest frequencies seen in automotive or audio test, though, so far it's promising. I hooked it up to a microprocessor GPIO being toggled every 1ms and the trace on the Mustool was agreeably clean and square. I was also pleased that manually adjusting the time base, gain and trigger settings was less awkward than anticipated - a knob would be better than repeatedly stabbing a button, but the buttons work well enough. As others have said, max vertical sensitivity is quite limited at 0.5v per division. (The dots you see in the photos are the divisions in question). It claims an input impedance of 10MΩ. For higher-frequency signals, a suitably trimmed 1:10 probe should help, but the 0.5v/div won't often be enough at 1:10. I'll try to update this review with some photos comparing the waveform seen on this little thing with those on a bench 'scope, at some point, meanwhile, so far, this seems to work as advertised and to be very good value.
