The only drawback that i found with the 380942 meter is that in order to take ma current readings you must first zero out the display and must leave this function enabled in order to take accurate readings and while you do this the minmax functionality is not available

When you switch the meter to “ma” the display will always display some value higher than zero so you must enable the dca zero function in order to take accurate readings
