Fluke 87V causes cancer!

[Fungus]

When is the title going to be to changed to: "Fluke 87V can cause cancer"? 

If the sample size was 'one' you'd be correct, but is isn't.

In any statistically significant group of engineers a Fluke 87 will cause cancer.

Still a far fetch but ok.

"Will cause" is something different than "causes" tho.

You probably shouldnt handle the manual either, as it's printed on paper and Caffeic acid is on the list.

Caffeic acid is an organic compound that is classified as a hydroxycinnamic acid. ... It is found in all plants because it is a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of lignin, one of the principal components of plant biomass and its residues.

There are other risk issues with the Fluke 87V to beware of, before any slow onset of cancer or VD, roids, scrotum rash etc  kicks in   

Accidental Self Strangulation with the leads

Stabbing oneself with the probes and bleeding profusely

Lung damage and nostril burn from yellow holster sniffing

Update Edit: 
Foot injury from such a heavy meter drop, and or long term incapacitation from nerve and bone damage

Sterility in the event the meter falls and swings hard into one's private parts, whilst holding the probes tightly to save the 'expensive meter' from the awaiting concrete peril below


Any of the factors above may contribute to unemployment and a bad day in the sack
worst case the destitute owner resorts to crime, using the probes as weap0ns to threaten greedy evil rich people, the leads to tie up h0stages etc

...or if the p0lice and Sw@t rock up, claim the meter is a b0mb and will go 0ff on the third BEEP if/when probes get shorted, once the device gets selected to the deadly  [ __ __ ]   or DIE->ODE   position.
(FYI to dummies: that's the only way you might have a slim hope to bail out of there, after requesting a helicoptor, bikini clad female pilot, bag of unmarked cash, tub of KFC and coke..)


At least my 87Vs measure right every time, otherwise I would Ebay the suckers

and drag out the AVOmeter, and safely prod away... wearing a full nuke suit and breathing gear
