I was planning on treating myself to a Fluke, but finally wanted one with a DC clamp meter (and ideally logging). The 325 seems great for this, but loses fine measurements for electronics use (no mV/mA measurements) :(

Okay, punting on the DC clamp meter functionality for now and down to the Fluke 117 and the EEVBlog/Brymen BM235

BM235 benefits:

• Data logging

• Slightly higher precision

• Temperature measurements

117 benefits:

• It's a Fluke

@christianselig I got the Brymen and would choose it again. It just doesn’t make any financial sense to get the Fluke as someone who doesn’t earn money with the tool.

@lx The price difference isn't that much, it's more that I'd expect the Fluke to last forever and I'd have less of an expectation of that with the Brymen haha

@christianselig I would guess a fluke that completely matches the features of the Brymen would be more expensive. But from what I can tell you already discovered the infamous EEVBlog, I’m sure he has a good review or even comparison 😁
