That is not completely true. The HP3456A has a full scale of 1,100,000 compared to the HP3478A's 300,000 Not quite an order of magnitude. I have both and while the display is not always visible, particularly in dim light, I like the smaller size and quiet operation of the HP3478A compared to the HP3456A. When the better specs (on paper) of the HP3456A are not absolutely needed, the HP3478A is a fine bench meter.
