Keysight U1282A
« on: July 15, 2020, 11:20:33 am »
2+ years on my Keysight U1282A, got caught out in the rain yesterday and meter got a few splashes of rain, then had to totally strip it and clean PCB with isopropyl alcohol to get the thing to stop beeping for "incorrect lead" - current probe warning. I started out by cleaning out and drying the socket itself thinking that would be the source, but no joy until I stripped it and cleaned the PCB. Had completely forgotten its supposed to be IP67 rated.
Anyone else had fun with theirs in the rain?

Dunno about that, but Keysight is offering 25% off handheld meters!
