my 4th multimeter died today. they all 4 brought locally. each cost around 10$.
they all never used more than 1.5 year. 9V battery is really headache. wont last more than 2-3 months.
Im planing to buy durable meter. Friend recommended Fluke… Im shocked once I asked their price. 
Found Vichy VC97. this thing going around 28-30$ on ebay. that uses 2xAAA.
Here experts……. do you recommend this meter ?? or any better idea ?
My max budget is 30$ 
here it
I’m looking at one of these too.
Either the VC97 or the cheaper Uni-T UT33C.
Anyone have an opinion on either ?
UT33C good for basic use. heard Uni-T DMMs better build quality.
VC97 has more features & range too.
DX has Flukes less than 100$… I think they clones ??
Box say its nor for sale outside of China

I bought a Chinese Fluke 15B for around US$62 (I think) including a one year warranty from the store. It’s not a clone.
