I have a few clamp meters I usually use, but the poblme is that you're chunky and heavy, so I'm looking for something smaller and lighter. I probably won't need anything fancy, just something that I can use in cramped areas, works with ac and dc and can pick up low current. Anyone have any recomendations?
 
A while back I got the uni t ut210e which i think covers all your requirements so you should be good with this one

Klein CL390 is still perfect. They're quite small but they're really gonna make you wow.
 
Just looked at what Uni-T (Uni-Trend) offers and I think I'll pick up the UT256 mini fork for stabbing into panels. Already have 3 fork meters, 2 Pukes & one Ideal (stay away from the Ideal it's poorly thought out and executed but it does have capacitance), however the size of the forks make for extra work in tight spaces. Uni-T says you only get support if you buy from their site and to stay away from amazon, then they let it slip that you could buy off Ali-Express (lol). 29 bucks on Ali so maybe.
