Fluke 87V MAX versus Hioki DT4282 compared [video]
J-R:
It's understandable, Fungus must have forgotten his glasses or missed his afternoon power nap!
To bring things back on topic, I did watch some of the video when it was first posted. It's a bit long unless you just need that level of detail. The interesting part I learned about the 87V Max is the fact that when you're in Hi-res mode, the manual range display does not match: https://youtu.be/hfAm1Gen9ng?t=1873
The 87V has this same "issue". It is an odd situation to try to solve, and I suspect Fluke made a conscious decision here. Personally I think they should have just made the DMM a 20k count DMM all the time and just skipped the 6k count mode completely.
Fungus:
Oh, brain fart.
I was reading a thread about price of 87V vs. price of 87VMax and somebody slipped in a 28II.
BeBuLamar:
I haven't use the 87V or 87V Max in high res mode except to see if it works. I guess it's slower and for all the work I do with the 87 I do not need the high res and I want it to response fast. One of the reason I hate to use the 289 or 287 for my work because it's autorange in resistance is too slow.
J-R:
Quality, not quantity, Fungus...
I'm sure there could be other ways to solve the "problem" with the manual range not reflecting reality in Hi-res mode, I'm just saying that is one way they could have addressed it. I don't think they would have had any issues making a fast 20k count DMM if they went that route.
The other solution of having additional LCD digits is really not going to be practical, because even "2 00" for example would be confusing since it can only display a "1" in the most significant digit. So they may have had to use "19 00" or similar.

Another nothingless thread .... bad compairaisons indeed
same thing for the false 500,000 count on some meters, an "high res" gimmick compare real ranges without resorting to display tricks
