Which model is that? MS826(x)  ???

I know it is not the 8261  ;)

EDIT: Nevermind.. the box shows the 8268  ;D

The 8268 (pictured on the box...) is what I thought you got?
The 8261 isn't an auto ranger.
Confusing box is confusing.

There's a checkbox on the side of the box.... My box looks the same... Bad packaging design.

At least it isn't in that awful plastic shipper thing, with the edges plastic-welded shut. Those things draw blood, either from the knife to open 'em, or from the plastic.

Cheap Poultry Sheers, $1 at your local $1 store. Like duct-tape, they are a common answer to a problem.

Yeah, those are cruel. Plus you can't open them while driving home from the store. :)

I just ordered this DMM (8268), since my old ones battery died and I wanted to get a new one anyways. Lame excuse, I know. (but it was a 7€ one without hFE or capacity. also, coin cells are expensive to replace ;))
I was looking into others, but couldn't quite find one that had the same options in the same prize range with good reviews. Was easier to look it up here after all, thanks guys
