I was going to buy a 376 until I learned they were made in China. That was a deal-breaker for me. Fluke will reap what they sow in the race to the bottom.

I have heard more complaints against Fluke's Chinese made products than any other company. For what they charge for the HVAC instruments made in China you'd think they could make them here.

Glad I still have all my Fluke meters from the 80's. Just send them in for calibration every so often.

Damn serial numbers on the sticker are worn off. I think I purchased my 375 in December of 2010, so I'll have to call Fluke to see what to do.

Only about 6 of their DMM's, or the REALLY high end calibrator type stuff. Originally Posted by ComfortService

EVERY clamp, volt tester, NCVT, etc are all China or Taiwan. But, they are also being deceptive, and not putting that on the unit, just the package. Once you throw the box away, you assume USA...........
