I used to have a neighbor that loved to brag about his new computer every year...I finally pinned him down about why he kept getting new ones: HIS response was "Old is JUNK! Nothing is any good unless it is NEW!" I then asked him why he kept driving a three year-old Nissan pick-up when the warranty was gone? He never spoke to me again (thankfully).

It takes all kinds bud...You like what you like, and I like mine...none of which has any bearing on answering the original post! As far as that goes, just keep playing with it until you learn to read that particular meter's quirks (they ALL have them!). Otherwise get something you CAN trust! This biz is one thing if nothing else: CONSTANTLY CHANGING!
