Query: Fluke 85 value

(1/4) > >>

BillyO:
I've not been big on Flukes past the 8000 series so just wanted to ask y'all Fluke aficionados this question:

Would a Fluke 85 in very good condition (without probes) be worth $135 (USD)?

It's market value will likely be about that, but I'm not sure you'd want to buy it as a meter to use--it's a decent 4000 count meter with capacitance but not much more.  Maybe if you want to round out your Fluke museum...

BillyO:
Too new for my Fluke museum.  My nephew is looking for a good DMM with traceability to use in working on heavy equipment.

bdunham7:
That sounds like a job for an 87 V Max.  If you need a durable (IP67 and 3 meter drop tested) and traceably calibrated meter, it won't be cheap.

Will that one be traceable? Do you know its complete history with 100% certainty?

Surely he can afford a new meter if he's working on heavy equipment.

(whatever that means - a lot of "equipment" is heavy)
