A few people has asked me about running the Vici VC99 meter. At first glance, I saw it was only rated for CAT II 1000 and did not plan to run it. However it seems like a fairly popular meter for some reason. Looking at the packing, they mention Fluke. My guess is the printing would have been "Compared". Maybe suggesting this is some how like a Fluke? They have the color very close but that transistor socket would need to go.
Looking at page 1 of the manual, its a 3 7/6 digit meter. Or 4 1/6.
The last statement on page 1 states "Please don't modify the circuitry arbitrarily, it may cause safety problem." It's a good point.
My plan for this meter will be to review it like the last few I have looked at, then run it with the 2 ohm source rather than the 12 ohms called for by CAT II.
