Fluke 28 II Battery life

<< < (4/11) > >>

Vito_R:
Just got back my meter from Fluke today.  As usual excellent fast and responsive world class service.  :) They replaced my meter under warranty with a brand new one in the box as my original meter I sent in to them was never used and still in original packaging.  Fully tested this new recently build unit and there is no low battery indication that appears at anytime when using continuity or any other function with 2nd level backlight on and works perfectly.  I'm presuming this revised board used in the latest meter is a permanent fix but will know for sure in a few years I guess if the problem develops again.  This is why you can recommend to anyone why they should spend hundreds of dollars on a high quality made in USA meter then a piece of S*** chinese multimeter.  They support their customers and stand behind their products and your investment of hundreds of dollars will last you a life time instead of throwing away money on unreliable and dangerous chinese garbage.  Kudos to Fluke once again.

Glad to hear you got your Fluke 28 II problem resolved by Fluke.

Fluke, like any corporation, will make mistakes, sometimes potentially lethal ones as you can read in their product recalls.  How they service and support their customers is why their products are premium priced.

My friend, at least they act on any issues and potential safety defects unlike those chinese manufacturers constantly producing many unsafe and dangerous products and keep quiet about it as their only importance is making a buck.  No one should trust their professional reputation or lives with that junk especially and most importantly test equipment.

Are we not saying the same thing?  :-DMM

Janne:
I'm still suffering the same problem with my meter, didn't get around to send it back  to Fluke for warranty. I would kinda need to buy another meter to fill in for it while it's being repaired.
Wonder if it would be fixed by just swapping the beeper, or if the problem is somewhere in the PCB?
Of course it might be a good idea to buy another reliable meter anyway, if it would broke for some reason I would be at least mildly screwed.
