I have my U1252B hanging on the rack above my shelf. Originally I used the reverse-mounted stand for that. But this means whenever I want to use the DMM on the bench I need to re-mount it.
This mount can be used to easily hang the DMM on a screw or hook, without changing the DMM stand. So now I'm much more flexible than before. It also allows to connect a U1173 cable as well.
