Click bait video, it measures 250v no problem, I don't know of a home that uses 500 volts, if I did I wouldn't use a £10 multimeter that's for sure.

thanks! I was undecided but now I know.

Who the idiot to roll the multimeter to worry about? The Fluke was designed to be floating in the water...that is why it has the body shape like that.

You're the best

That's a very good review, thank you, loved your kit very nice

can anybody with a brain take this clown seriously. for your information my comment refers to your ridiculous attempt to insert leads into the fluke could you be any more ridiculous. i certainly hope not all check people are not like you, I know slovenia people are normal, you are far from it

Thank you for this great test - but can you share the test results with English column names, and maybe in a Google Sheets format so we can sort/search it? Then it would be way more useful for people. Thank you!

Im not sure why they show maximal value on resistance like 6000MOhm, for me its better to show 2 dashes or OL letters. All others I like

Hey, how come it is so underpowered? I was sort of expecting the same as their cabled one and instead it works as if my battery is half dead. Though battery is new and fully charged. I tried 2 different batteries to make sure it wasn’t the battery. It’s like this heat gun would be ok for what you were doing - shrink wrapping the cable casings, but not for example to peel the paint from the wood, because otherwise I’ll be there all day 😅

Thanks Bker, a good in-depth review. Keep up the good work.

Please compare the Hioki DT4282 x Fluke 189

best review ever, thanks

DT4282 wins

Harmonic analysis?

Amazing review. Thanks 🙏

Bro, you're way too obnoxious with the fluke hatred its too much its a 87v max ip67 meter get your head straight. Everyone knows it isn't that exaggerating like you did because you hate fluke price's its obvious.. we have used 87v's and hiokis in our test lab for years now and everyone agrees they are both great meters. EVERY one one of my colleagues at work goes for the 87 first for accuracy. Its the standard...

that's how you test multimeters!

I have been a maintenance and field engineer for the past 36+ years. I would like to say "FLUKE = CONFIDENCE". Other meter brands come and go, better, more features, we've seen them all. BUT the only meter which you can trust when you are cold sweating at 3 AM, alone with a machine and the Customer is waiting for the repair, and the single reading that you take would decide which part to replace and have to make a decision to wait for 1 hour till the part arrives on site, I only trusted the reading from a FLUKE. DEPENDABLE. P.S. I still have a FLUKE 8060AA (1989) working as new. Let's wait for the other meters 30+ years banged and beaten in the field, the judge.

Some low range clamp current meters are very accurate and can detect even 1 mA. For example UNI-T UT210E.

Great topic! I see that you have SKYRC charger. This charger have a RAM battry mode.

When I make measurements, I always use BM869s "BRYMEN". But when an unexpected measurement happens, I always check it with FLUKE289. When I get external verification and they want to see what the measurement looks like, I always show them the measurement with FLUKE289. I never have problems when they see FLUKE! All instruments are calibrated, certified, but only with Fluke I have no problems. This is the bare reality!I don't know HIOKI, it must be a very good instrument. The BM869S is also an excellent instrument, both are better than FLUKE. But are they equally reliable, traceable, calibrated, credible, stable when you compare them with FLUKE?

Hi, do you think this tool could work for drywall cutting

I was just about to buy the Fluke 17B+ but you've completely changed my mind on it while also serving up some hilarious offhand commentary. Keep it up!

Nice vidéo (from France) 👍

Perfect explanation. Thank you very much. This video taught me not to just blindly trust any renowned brand.

Would it be a bad idea to replace the AAAs in the UT61E+ with a li-ion battery paired with one of those voltage conversion modules that raises the output voltage to 5v or 6v?

Hello from Australia :-). Thanks for your detailed review. I picked up one of these on eBay, I wish it was easier to buy Japanese products, I usually have to buy them in Japan but tool shops usually never have specialised tools like this. If you ever visit Japan, check out the tool shops ;-)

No rms no deal

I think those two multimeters should not be compared, they are not of the same category, Good Night Man, 🎩

are you indian?

Excelent! On point and saved me money, thank you.

For your information here is another test of the same unit czcams.com/video/2jLM0S-yKic/video.html

I run a fluke 86 iii- still badass

Dude, you are using a multimeter which is SPECIFIED to work only below 300V. It's good, that you are showcasing this, but this is NOT an error.

LOL... Fluke is very good but it is indeed overpriced... Amprobe (also owned by Danaher, same company that owns Fluke) is great; Flir, Testo, Hioki, Sanwa, Ideal, CEM, Greenlee, Klein, Brymen, Extech, Southwire, Uni-T, Voltcraft, Gossen, Ideal, Etc.... are great - multimeters also depend very much upon usage, needs, environment, personalities and budget: outside, inside or bench and personal preferences !!!

Was about to buy the 17B+. Now I'm not. Thanks, you probably saved me a whole bunch of pain.

It's a "fluke" if it performs!@! A fluke if they honor their warranty in a meaningful way.

Nicely done!

Great service to we, your viewers all practical potentials explored and explained. Such efforts. Thank you!

Man you are BIASED!! But for well explained facts and reasons. Much nuanced and detailed. thank you sir!!

Thank You so much for most comprehensive in depth review . As of May 2024 , I want to buy a accurate entry level DMM for SMD electronic component testing and measuring voltages . I have budget of $ 50 . Though looks stunning high tech sexy I am controlling myself not to go for colour bigger screen but will definately prefer backlight colour lcd . As my knowledge is limited I will prefer both auto /manual mode . I have read that kaiweet , multicomp , aneng , uni-t all are actually OEM products . Can you pls. suggest best suited reliable , sturdy dmm with best build quality . I will have to check whether it is available here in India as well as its not possible to import due to high customs duties. Thank you. Keep it up .My best wishes.

The HIOKI 4261 Is not designed nor is aimed at any electronics use. It is simply for the average electricians that won't even need to use (measure) currents in the range of microamps. This is the reason why. And by the way, I've got a Fluke 85 V version and is a fast and a great and long lasting multimeter but as you pointed out has lots of shortcomings therefore I'm gonna "surely" buy a HIOKY 4282 soon. I really like the dual display and the warning functions, more stability, more accuracy, and an overall a much nicer layout and display. Well done HIOKI I'm your costumer.

Looks like you are silly goose and do not understand about electricity at all.

I bought the 87v max, i assume it will last for electrician work and still use it for hobbies. I hope i don't have to buy another one after warranty lifetime ends

Ali Express is just a rip-off. Better to just buy an original secondhand battery use and then replace the cells if you need. Everything is either a rip-off or a scam online now and the whole internet is in danger of collapsing into dictatorship, misdirection, or piracy.

Thanks 3 for 🎉

This PARKSIDE in NOT precise multimeter. I found, that he measures on 10A range current 70 mA, while other - marked - multimeters shows 0 mA.

unstable as windows 95 😂😂
