Default Fluke 79 acting up




187,189 has been discontinued by fluke and replaced with a 287,289..

So beware of people selling you out dated meters.

get a 289, you'll like it!




The 77 I'm replacing is over 15 years old, it still served most of my needs
just fine, all it lacked was true RMS. What do I care if a meter is out
dated?

Screw the 289, it'd cost me 3 times what the 87 I found did, and I can't see
anything extra it does that I need. That's a lot of budget I could use for
other hobbies.
