The clamp on the positive (red) is broken. Note that has extremely flimsy plastic nubs to hold the copper teeth inside the probe's handle. Both nubs on the red side have broken off. I don't know if that was how I received it or happened during use. It doesn't matter to me since I can see that the ground (black side) has same cheap flimsy looking nubs so will require very gentle usage. I've used on three batteries.

Its pretty obvious they were saving a few cents with such cheap connection points. A pity. I'd be happy to spring for a couple more bucks to have beefy clamps such as on my different battery chargers and meters.

The electronics seems to work fine. I had AAA over to install a new battery in one of our vehicles and I compared results of his tests (mongo-meter with nice printout) with this meter and they were very close (V, milli amps, CCA). So I'm happy there. Just add some heft to those clamps.

I'm currently waiting for some Gorilla Glue to dry to attempt to hold the jaws in the red clamp. Wish me luck. Otherwise I'll remove their clamps and wire in some from an old battery charger. Even alligator clips would be superior if insulated.
