A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

That was a bargain, even with the fault.

I think mine has lost the LCD screen a few times, but I put it down to the cold temperatures I was working in. She started up again after powering down a couple of times.

I would (also) suggest doing a software update before sending it back, otherwise I might be interested in buying her off you.

The latest software update is on the Emitor site, it isn't that recent, as it isn't the latest model, but may make a difference. You can use the meter without the LCD panel working, but you need to memorise the functions.:)

Did you pay by paypal? If you did, then you should have buyer protection and if you send it back by recorded delivery, then should the seller not refund the money, you can claim back from paypal.
