For me, there is nothing better than the Fluke 289! ...and yes, anyone knows the disadvantages, but the advantages are the reason to buy it - at least for me, myself and I: - the build quality is perfect: the rotary switch is top, as well as the button design and button feeling when pressing - best precision: no matter against which benchtop or handheld multimeter - you can trust it! (well, my Keysight U1273A is also bang on!) - best arrangement of the display and possibilities to switch values from the top to the bottom and vice versa, the way you need it (even better than the Keysight U1273A with its OLED and free arrangement, because you have more space!) - own switch to power it on, so that you can leave the testleads in their plugs and the rotary switch in its position - you can measure anything (apart from white LEDs in diode mode as 3.1V is max) => capacitance up to 100mF like the Rigol 3068/Siglent 3065 => resistance up to 100MOhm like the Rigol 3068/Siglent 3065 => low pass filter => LowZ => LowOhm => frequency up to 999.99kHz => 250µS to capture nearly any peak - best prioritization such as measuring capacitance: as an LCR-meter is better, it is enough to have not endless digits such as the Keysight U1273A, with its flickering getting on my nerves - easy to use with its F-Buttons, you even have a help-menu - you can do everything in the settings: comma or point; dd-mm-yy or mm-dd-yy; any local time format; any backlight with its two brightness settings or power off timing you can imagine - you can save ANY measurement and recall it immediately without pc or software and see it the same way as the real time measurement like a snapshot even with time and date, which is simply worth any penny of this DMM - you could update the FW on your own (thank you, Fluke) - the USB-IR-adapter has a fair price (thank you, Fluke) - it works with any OS (thank you, Fluke) - it measures fast enough in any setting and it is the fastest as far as capacitance is concerned due to its prioritization (see above) - it could record any measurement with a graph (which is probably responsible for keeping this poor display, unfortunately...) Cheers! ;) |

And you neglected to mention the warranty. Of course I have to concede that today's prices on these are getting a little absurd. The kit I have with the cable, software, Pelican case and accessories would be ~$1500 now. :o |
