I did my research before I purchased. It is good quality and full featured. I use it in an industrial environment and is my first line meter for troubleshooting. I have more in depth meters for bench work or if I need to go further with a specific function. That being said, I usually do not need them. This meter has all the bells and whistles and is packed with features. It has ac/dc amps, belts a non contact Volt indicator, capacity tester built in light and illuminated backlit screen. So most everything is covered. I do recommend buying the magnetic holder that class to the back. It is a great feature and extremely useful.

love the shipper and price point. Otherwise, lots of gripes: -min max is not reliable -too easy to change dial from amps to volts or some other such bump -too easy to change mode from ac to dc or some other such bump -bundled leads should not be 90 degrees -viewing angle is not copasetic with the amp clamp (not for cars, anyway)

I needed a DVM that I could rely on to be accurate and work all the time. This Klein meter fits the bill perfectly. It's easy to use and based on testing it against other units, is very accurate. The amp clamp feature is what I was after and it has performed as I had hoped. It helped me track down a parasitic draw on my car and saved me a boat load of money. Highly recommend the unit.

Lots of features and rugged too. The fact that it can measure both ac and dc amperage using the clamp is a great feature. It even has a built in light. Why only 4 stars? Well I would give it 41/2 stars but you can't do that. The leads are good, but the more expensive meters have the silicone leads. Also no alligator clip come with it. If you need more than 1000V or 600 amps you need to buy a more expensive meter.

I shopped for an ampmeter with AC/DC years ago. This is what I found. Some of the competition makes a DC ampmeter, but they are very high dollar, and have limited versatility. I found this one with most of the features that I ever need, in one package, at a nice price - about $100. Bought it, and never regretted it. Alas - losing a meter inside of a high temperature (600° F right next to the dessicant beds) drying machine for a period of months takes a toll on the meter. The case was warped and bent when I found it again, but it still worked. The meter has served me reasonably well for more than two years after being so abused. Alas, I'm down to wrapping large O-rings around the body to hold it together, and the batteries fall out repeatedly. I'm returning to buy another CL-800 to replace the one I've abused to death. The thermocouple leads are a new addition to the CL-800, and a welcome one. I'll reach for the Fluke 179 less often now that the Klein can read temps. Read the list of features, carefully. This meter does much more than just DC amps and temperature. It is a true multimeter, and does almost everything a maintenance man, or an auto mech will ever need. I do own Flukes, but this Klein is usually the meter I reach for.Read full review
