fluke 8020a battery pad
« on: March 21, 2014, 10:29:42 pm »
i recently bought a fluke 8020a off of ebay listed as non working because seller couldn't power it up. turns out all thats wrong with it is the battery pad has a part of a battery permanently stuck to it and therefore needs to be replaced. does anyone have a parts 80xx handheld meter that can spare its battery pad? i am in florida USA

The 8020A has a fuseholder that is intergral to the battery clip, so I can see why one would want one off a parts meter.  It can be replaced by a generic clip, but it's a bit more difficult.

I checked my stock, and I have only one parts 8020a, with, you guessed it, a bad battery clip.

ya i have a battery pad from some other meter but the wires are a bit short.  was trying to see if i could keep it authentic if i could. i know people often need a parts meter for the main chip or the lcd as those are most common to go bad, or for missing or broken buttons, but i figured a battery pad would be a pretty easy thing to get without needing an entire parts meter.
