If you only had one meter?

187 doesn't have the cap.
(and is the more sensible choice of the two)

I couldn't decide between BM869S, BM525S and Metrix 3293.
Metrix 3293 has datalogging, graphical display, high precision, high voltage/current diode mode (27V/10mA), single current socket (100uA to 10A) with automatic socket switching from A to V and back....
It also can charge while working... But it's batteries last maybe a month. It is my favorite indoors.
BM869S has very nice screen and is excellent meter.
In field I carry BM525. It has very good battery life, datalogging, and huge, nice screen with good visibility.
I could survive with any of those 3 though. Many years ago all we had were analog scale passive multimeters and we did good job with those too.. I have two old ones that are still in perfect working order.

Help me choose...
Either Fluke 867B (it's a big fat Swiss knife with the wrong colour), Fluke 189 (I'd call the best overall compromise), Metrix MX54 (my go-to meter for everyday use).
Now, if you only have one meter I have plenty to sell and I'll help you choose... >:D

I'd go for my Keysight U1273AX. It's handheld but with more than enough precision for my needs.
I got it as a gift and initially I preferred the old 87V for bench work but I've grown to really like it.
andyB2022:
I would pick Fluke 189. 289 is very bulky, has a slow boot time, power hungry, low LCD contrast, need to press couple of buttons to get where I need to...
Imo Fluke 189 is the best (most complete) DMM they have ever manufactured.
