    Fluke is recalling more than 100,000 lead sets due to a potential dangerous failure. Mine are included. . . .are yours?
    Hindsight is NOT a plan!

    Nope. Mine have the suregrip symbol.

    TL222's are the best leads I've ever had the pleasure of using.

    Link to Fluke notice

    Note that if they have the suregrip symbol on them, they're OK.

    And, true to form, Fluke is standing behind their problems 100%. No arguments, no denials. It's a voluntary recall.

    This is why they are head and shoulders above all the other test instrument manufacturers today.

    the problem is that we have to send in our leads before they will send replacements and that sucks

    Why is that a problem? You'll get your leads.

    Don't tell me you only own one set of test leads???
