I don't think I have been in a HF 10 times if they gave me a meter I would chunk it : )... Life's to short to put trust junk tools.
Don't be a tool snob. I have a dozen or so of the HF freebie meters and I've compared them to my Fluke 87 and found no issues and very close readings for pretty much anything but exotic distorted waveforms where you actually need a true RMS meter.
I put the HF freebies in every single toolbox and vehicle so there is always a basic meter handy without chasing after the Fluke.
I'm also a fan of the HF $12 or so mini clamp meters, they are great and having three for little cost is quite handy for three phase stuff. The CR2032 batteries were a bit of a concern at first, but they last a long time so not an issue. I do have a hall effect clamp probe which is great used with the Fluke to log peak DC currents on starters and such.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
