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

@christianselig I think this is the first time I have abjectly disagreed with you. I’m a big fan of the "buy cheap/used first for tools" if it breaks from use, or that will no longer do the job, then buy the swanky one.

But I also have ADHD and switch hobbies constantly. Possibly related?

@nerdwoman hmm what part do you disagree with? I typically follow your philosophy too, my existing cheap old multimeter just sucks haha

@christianselig I think mentioning Fluke right off the bat made me cringe a bit in price reaction, but I also somehow missed that your previous one died. A two-for-one, my bad
