Hi Wytnucls, Today I bought a second-hand Fluke 185 he looks almost new considering his age. I could use some advice from you like: - how to test accuracy. - how to do to see what firmware has, and if it has been calibrated in factory. I paid for it 250 euro w/o leads. Initially wanted a Tektronix TX3 (hard to find and more bucks for me + paint that cleans). Second option was a Brymen 867s but I had a hesitation when i see a review with many differences (accuracy) between same model BM867s. I still have a Uni-t UT70B, pretty good price and performance. *The photos has been made of first and second (re)seller. With special consideration, Lucian Cernega. |
| Wytnucls:
For accuracy test, you will need to buy a voltage reference. Power up with F1 depressed will show last calibration (month and year) and firmware. (1.01 and 9977/77 on mine, which doesn't make much sense) |

Thank you very much for information Wytnucls. Which reference voltage do you have ? |
| Noise Floor:
Wonderful review, thank you. I have had a 185 for about 8 years, still like it a lot. |

Hi Noise Floor, I'm glad to hear that about your Fluke 185. I just bought 185 a few days ago. I paid 250 euro, a little too expensive for a old Fluke model, but is MADE IN USA. Can you tell me in a few words about this model of Fluke, information are quite a few on web. A few pros and cons you have over the years (calibration, accuracy, other problems encountered with it). With special consideration, Lucian Cernega. |
