Because I like to mess with things that would ruin a higher end Fluke meter? I tend to keep cheap multi-meters for working around cars, or very high current situations where water is present. Almost never have a meter last more than a year due to either water damage, or some really funky stuff getting passed through it from a car. Best story is of when I was probing heating elements on a 120 gallon water heater. While probing, found the element was still active, and the moment i took the probe off, the threads on the rusted out tank let go, great way to die, and great way for an expensive higher end meter to die as well when it's on the floor.
