At work we swear by Flukes, and the 87 is a "standard" old-faithful.
I cannot afford a "real" meter for work at home, so I bought the craftsman model for $35. The only thing that has ever gone wrong with it is the LCD display stopped working. Sears replaced it for free even though it was not really included in the LT warranty. I was just using a borrowed tekscope last night looking at the pulses coming out of my Mallory optical timing pickup. If I was going to spend the $$ on a new fluke, I would just buy a used tekscope 700 series. One sold on ebay a couple of weeks ago for ~$350 |
