You can never have enough.

Exactly - where's your DC current clamp meter???

Never had a use for it, 10 amps is plenty , but when I do need one you can be sure I will buy one.

I make it 87, which is quite an amusing number for it to be. I think you missed some lying down, partly hidden.

Well, at least we're in the same ballpark.

To be fair.... most of them are Fluke 25s (or 27s?) which can probably be picked up for $20 in the USA.

What are those big yellow boxes with the meters stuffed in the front? What do they do?

Never seen those before. Some sort of giant accessory box for the Fluke 87?

EEVblog · « **Reply #67 on:** September 02, 2020, 05:14:58 am »

This guy has a boat load of Fluke 27's available for $38, bargain!

He doesn't have a transparent Fluke 87v so it's an incomplete collection

Plus another $100 if you live outside the USA.

(very solid/reliable meters... grab 'em while you can)

Manual ranging is a way better than slow autoranging. I think you know what I mean

This is so true!!!!! Thankfully meters are much better these days when it comes to auto ranging.

Manual ranging is so charming

How do you measure inductance in your DMM?
