hi Loren,
I see no reason to have both..
for me, I sure hope I'm not working on any car with those smaller ATC fuses.

so far I've found out............ it takes a very tiny phillips screw driver
to get the battery cover off..
it takes a weird 12 battery ( included ) ..it's like a short AAA batt.
and 3...
it's limited to a 10 second test at a time.

the   info with it says 'resolution' is 0.1 amp ..
so I suppose it can read that low, which could be useful.

not too big an investment in any case.

Scott
