Some might not find quality their main concern. For ruggedness, I don't know who wins. I ordinarily would not use a Fluke as I find them expensive, but if I carried something with me all the time, it would have to be good, and price would not be as much concern, unless I kept loosing track of where I sat it down. greg

I have built a 5.000 +/- 0.001 volt precision reference which I take to the store to do my own "select-on-test". http://groups.google.com/group/sci.electronics.repair/msg/f887bfeec522f727?dmode=source&hl=en http://pdfserv.maxim-ic.com/en/ds/MAX6325-MAX6350.pdf - Franc Zabkar -- Please remove one 'i' from my address when replying by email.

I hear a lot of good things about protek. They have a lot of products with similar specs to Fluke's. I don't own one yet.. I'm still agonizing over spending the extra cash on the Fluke myself. |
