FLUKE 15-17B+ and some other FLUKE allow you to disable the auto-shutoff. If you hold down the yellow button when you turn it on, It disables the auto-shutoff feature. I believe this is true for 15-17B+ models and more. It will momentarily flash "Poff" then"Loff". Here are two pictures. |

The apparent lack of difference between the DM64 and the DM66 was driving me a little crazy. Poking around the internet, I came across an answer from a FLIR support person on an Amazon listing for the DM66: The difference is not in terms of the technical part of the meter, but in the elements that it comes with when purchased. the DM66 comes with: - DM66 with integral probe holder - 2 × alkaline batteries (AAA) - high-quality silicone test leads - alligator clips - soft carrying case the DM64: - DM64 with integral probe holder - 2 × alkaline batteries (AAA) - high-quality silicone test leads - type K thermocouple - soft carrying case So the difference between the DM64 and DM66 is that one comes with a thermocouple and the other comes with alligator clips. Those must be some really nice alligator clips to justify a $60 difference in price! (and the DM64 is still on sale for $50) |

2 hrs is short, I want it keep going 8 hrs . I hope it turn off if batteries get <15% so it wont damage them and never turn off powered from mains ? wish it would adjust to 4,6,8 hr before turn off , how long is battery life and are batteries included with this ? is there a calibration for f.ex resistance so I can zero out leads and check ones at less than one ohm ? I also hope it remember all settings for ranges, etc so I dont need adjust preferences every boot. |

I repair all kinds of equpment from computers to amplifiers with rails +- over 100volt to crts with high voltage points and thats for sure not when I want meter to beep at me within minutes of turn it on. I like the xdm1041 or 1241 and will probably get one of those. I have never seen any meter with 9v battery last long time, I wish most meters use 2x aa or better yet lithium cell that recharge easy and not micro usb ports that wear out in 10 uses. I hate the aaa with max 100 mah capacity used in all kinds of things, feels like a competition to sell new batteries to get rich... My scale came with 3v clock battery to make sure I keep buy new ones, I modded it with an old mobile phone cell and now it runs years before charge. |
