From the Amazon listing:
Klein Tools CL390 is an automatically ranging true root mean squared (TRMS) digital clamp meter. It measures AC/DC current and NCVT via the clamp, AC/DC voltage, DC microamps, resistance, continuity, frequency, capacitance, and diodes via test leads, and temperature via a thermocouple probe.
------
Not the lowest price in history (per 3x camel), but near recent lows. Reviews are mostly positive. Viewing in sunlight seems to be a weak point, so if working on an outdoor A/C unit in the sun, you may want another option.
Seems like at least a decent deal if you need the features without jumping way up in price for fluke, etc.

have a DMM for checking voltage and that was used quite often when wiring smart switches and outlets, and troubleshooting some circuitry.
not sure if measuring amps is something I'd need (haven't had to yet).

I used mine (older model) recently to measure my furnace startup current so I could size a generator.

I recently needed a capacitance meter to check my HVAC run capacitor. That's the main limitation I had with my DMM
Agree - checking for the generator is the only time I've used the clamp/current feature of mine. Others may have better use cases.

Same question.. Just looking at it though that dead zone makes sense, the clamp is huge compared to most of the automotive wires, it seems unlikely it could accurately measure such small magnetic fields.
But if anyone knows for sure, I have the same question
These still have low current limitations because it relies on the strength of the magnetic field outside of the wire.
For low amperage parasitic draws in a car, I suggest looking at fuse voltage drop testing.
