Thanks guys, i came across a deal for a brand new Fluke 87V and that is why i was debating it. It is a NIB item for about $200. Does that change things at all?
oops sorry NIB = New In Box.
You may know but for others. . .
270WSM....just be aware that Fluke's limited lifetime warranty might not be what you assume a "lifetime warranty" to be. It's not based on YOUR lifetime, only the lifetime of the product line. See here:
http://us.fluke.com/usen/Service/Warranties/default.htm
"Industrial Products Limited Lifetime Warranty: Lifetime is defined as seven years after Fluke discontinues manufacturing the product, but the warranty period shall be at least ten years from date of purchase. *(Lifetime Warranty applies to products manufactured after October 1996)"
i just picked my i410 amp clamp up the other day. when reading ac amps on my 179 it is kinda slow to show the amps... obviously the reading on the meter is millivolts....
also it doesnt zero stays closer to 1 amp +- .5
is yours the same way? the zero function doesnt really zero it out in ac..
i just cant see how i could measure low amp draw on a component with this setup.
im kinda disappointed. my 902 does it quickly and this meter is supposed to be more accurate and is SLOW....
Gotta have the right tool for the job!

Thanks a lot guys for your advice. I couldn't resist the deal on the 87v. Picked it up this morning and just playing around with it. now all i have to do is figure out what to do with it.
Still learning. . .
I just picked up the Fluke 87v/e2 and the 902 and the 177.
The 902 is great cause it can also read micro amps.Niceback up for the 87.
If your sticking your #@!$ beater in large panels, I wouldn't trust anything but Fluke.
My 2 small girl"s insist I use Fluke!!!
P.S. Not sure what Im gonna do with the 177?
If you cant fix it right, try again.
Congrats Wood, your well on your way!!
If you cant fix it right, try again.
The 116 does do milli volts, i believe the 116 is your best bet. I will be purchasing one soon, as of now i have the 902, i love that meter lol. For an hvac technician, weather it be a gas heat, ac, or anything of that nature the 116 will bee just fine.
P.S. lol, just read through and saw you bought the 87v, nice purchase, for that price i would of also, good luck with it.
I dont install leaks, i just fix em
