Hi Jim

Yes, I also prefer the Fluke meters. I own a bench and handheld model.

They have a lifetime warranty and are a good investment new or used.

Many good models available on ebay from the big tech sellers at a good price.

Fluke's DMMs do cost much more than generic ones. They guarantee accuracy
that the others can't touch. I've always been amused that Radio Shack and
many other inexpensive DMMs don't publish accuracy specifications.

If you want something for relative measurements (peaking, etc) and hobby
use, you have a wider field available. If you use it for a living and it
*has* to work - well, my Fluke 87 has served *me* wonderfully well. But
modern IC technology has certainly made a lot of capability available for
little cost elsewhere!
