I have to say, I am very happy with it and its features and accuracy. And like some (selective) Chinese products, very good construction quality. For the $50.00 shipped to my door within 10 days from China, I think it was a good purchase decision. Will it last 30 years like the good 'ol Beckman; maybe not, but that meter was like $200 back in 1984 with 1/4 of the features/accuracy of this one.

Klein tools used to sell the same meter! The 60A Amp Clamp logo on the front is a dead giveaway - klein sold that as an accessory. I think Klein got 99 dollars for theirs, also a good price for the feature set.
I still have an operating Beckman 4410, a 310 on steroids, with 4-1/2 digits and true RMS. I like it for high resistance measurements and the occasional voltage check, but my Fluke 77 gets most of the day -to- day usage.
