    Has anyone got any first hand experience of this tester? I have a Mastech multimeter with logging that I use on my repair bench, it's a couple of years old, always been accurate and recently passed a calibration. The input stage on the multimeter isn't as well protected as a Fluke for example, it's classed as CATIII but lacks in physical separation and fuse quality. That said I'm aware of its limitations and only use it for electronics benchwork.

    The 5908C does an impressive array of tests and given the price it would be rude not to buy one if it does what it says. Just wondered if anyone had any advice about whether it's fit for purpose.
