Saved the old but beloved F179 from the litter bin. Would be awesome if there was a source for these parts for the BRYMEN as well. I don't know if that is something you want to use stock space for (spare displays, etc.). Just in idea. Would also be cool from the "right to repair" point of view. |

Posting shields out to everyone who bought a BM786 sounds like a pain in the arse and could be costly as well, not to mention the risk of damage should they be incorrectly installed. Perhaps people could make their own with a bit of tin foil or copper sheet and some insulating material on the underside so as not to cause any shorts on the board. :-\ |

Shield has to block permanent magnetic field... So it's either soft iron (thick piece too) or some mu-metal or something... And it has to go around beeper enough to shunt magnetic field around sensitive part... |

Take the LCD for example, to my knowledge not a single one has died yet, and I wouldn't expect any to for at least another decade. Fluke sell these to customers who have had the meter for 20+ years and it's finally died. I would literally have the buy the stock now and sit on them for at least another decade before anyone wanted them, and then the sales numbers you could count on one hand. |
