The test leads do have plastic covers on them that you can pop off, to have an extended probe. They can be kind of tight on there. They "snap" or "click" in place.
I have used a cheap w2970 performance tool multimeter for years to balance cells on an electric skateboard battery. I finally dropped it on tile and the led became garbled. I really like the protective blue cover on the cm300! I forgot how much better a multimeter looks when the probes are coiled and snuggly in place!
I only have Klein because I’ve got them on clearance from Home Depot 13$

That is a really solid pickup!
I got mine for Audible continuity, too.
To much talking not enough showing how to use

Absolutely, jeez.
are you saying that 2 AAA batteries are not as good as a 9v ? Is that because 2x1.5 = only 3 v ? would you say that if it was 6x1.5 it would be as good as a 9v ?
I got an Amazon multimeter (~$20) about 5-6 years ago..the thing's been great... It's the B Side ADM08A...yes gibberish...😅.. It's a trooper though..never a problem..fast report..I bought better leads from Bionso...but the ones that came with the unit weren't terrible...fwiw...

Pretty good
Who wants to sit here for half an hour and not hear some basics of how it works ?
Klien has recalled so many of their meters over the years, Ive lost compleat trust in their meters for life.

No kidding? I haven't kept up with their recalls. Maybe I need to bring a Fluke home and see how they all compare.
This dude has no 😮I mean nooooo friends at all 😢
Didn’t tune in to hear a filibuster. Too much nonsensical talking.
WASTE OF TIME VIDEO

You must be new here. There are time stamps for your convenience. That said, you probably won't like my style so you can save time by just skipping over everything I crank out.

Complete waste of time
