Perfect for my needs October 28, 2009 K. MacDonald Talk about simple to use! This thing is stupid proof. I absolutely love it. You can always count on Fluke to produce a real quaility tester....and they make something for every person's needs.
Perfect Toolbag Meter March 27, 2009 Dave (Kitsap County, WA, USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have had one of these in my work toolbag (very rough usage) for many, many years now. This thing is a workhorse of a multimeter. I test everything from 6v DC to 460v 3-phase with no problem. It always gives a quick reading. This thing is even idiot-proof, as you don't need to select AC or DC current. I've used this feature then in a remote area, checking power (Am I getting 12v AC or DC??).
One con I can think of, is the spread of the amp current jaws. I have come up with wires that just won't fit. This won't happen in most applications, though. I have to say that this is one rock-solid meter, and it has made my job easier. It has attached leads, which I really have grown to like. You just clip them to the back of the meter, wrap the wires lengthwise around the meter & stuff it back into the toolbag.
I have even purchased another one for my tool chest at home, and seem to pull it out more often than my other meters, a Fluke 179 and a Simpson 260. It's just an easy meter to use, and I can't recommend it highly enough.
Great meter November 2, 2008 T. Richardson (somewhere in NY) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It a Fluke need I say more? I find in life you get what you pay for. If you want a great meter this is it, look no more.

This tester is great! It is made by Fluke, so it is the top quality. This tester is a great tester, and I would recommend it to anyone!
A GOOD ALL-AROUND METER June 22, 2008 W. Dragschutz 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I work as a Master Mechanic is a large manufacturing plant and needed something I could shove in my pocket and not get the leads all tangled. I especially liked the open-jaw ammeter.
The only drawbacks I found is the ohmmeter that shows an open (infinite resistance) after 1K. That has caused me to condemn good components. Also the plastic clip that holds one of the leads broke shortly after I bought my first one. I was able to fix it with a little silicone caulk. About 4 years later I lost a segment in the readout that made it hard to distinguish numbers. That's when I bought my second one. 4 years is good service for a low-cost tool made out of plastic that gets constant use and abuse.
