First time I've had a meter which measures current! And a continuity buzzer.... blissBut as I said to my kids, if I ever need to measure 1000V and 400C, I and my Arduino are deep in the cr@p
First lesson, never leave your meter leads in the current position when you are finished taking a current reading. If not the next time you go to take a 'quick' voltage reading you will end up at best blowing a protection fuse, or worst destroying something. When in the current position your meter leads represent a real world short circuit waiting to wreck havoc on all things electronic. Still happens to me sometimes after all the decades of using DMM, so best practice is to change leads back to voltage position before turning off the meter, so next use will be less likely to create drama and bad language.
Fluke use to have on some older model meters a safety feature where if the function knob was in the voltage mode but a lead was plugged into the amp position it would sound off awful on the buzzer. It was effective but did add costs to the models.
