TA-0392: Fluke Friday (E21) APPA 203 - The Missing Fluke 38 Multimeter ??

Wouldn't it be great if Fluke made this 38, the 8x series is still so popular.

Another interesting Fluke(ish) Friday! Thank you, Tony. Surprising how empty the case is, I guess it was designed to make it look like a bench meter. Regards, David

[@TonyAlbus]

Thanks David, yes indeed, was the same in the 37

[@uni-byte]

I see the 10A fuse has been replaced with a 38mm x 10mm fuse. For some reason they are 1/10 the cost of 35mm x 10mm fuses. I think Fluke and other DMM manufacturers have turned the 35mm x 10mm fuse into a cash cow for the fuse companies.
Another nice show Tony!

[@TonyAlbus]

Thank you! .. on AliExpress they are cheaper, i left some links. Its is to punish you for abusing the meter i think :) you should not blow your fuse...

[@ernestb.2377]

Nice bench meter Tony 👍 I like the quite big and clear digits, fast bar graph and kind-a old skool meter 😁

[@TonyAlbus]

Thansk! Glad you like it

[@Petertronic]

Very nice meter! Good video.

[@TonyAlbus]

Thank you!

[@johndevires5911]

Thank you for another good video Tony. I have a APPA105 which is a Fluke 87 clone, still going strong after 20+ years. 😉👍

[@TonyAlbus]

Thank you! , yes APPA makes some good stuff.!

[@barrybogart5436]

I like my portable 2030A but I need to make a battery pack. But it comes with a genuine Fluke wall-wart (A81-115) in its companion leather case. Pretty cool as you might say yourself. 73

[@TonyAlbus]

The 2023A is very very nice! nice find!

[@ssalient]

Nice to see this Flukalike :)

[@TonyAlbus]

Thanks! ,yes FF is back....... i hope :)) stay tuned!

[@ernestb.2377]

By the way, I like your wooden rack for big instruments, looks very good. I consider a real VNA, an old HP but they are just huge and heavy (20+ kg), so quite challenging where to put it...

[@TonyAlbus]

Thanks, yes its all home build to fit in that spot there. i have a video about the whole build process if you are interested.

[@gordselectronicshobby3853]

Looks very much like the Mastech / Sinometer M9803R

[@TonyAlbus]

Yes that could be very true, i explane even why in the video

[@piotr-Garou]

👍

[@TonyAlbus]

Thank you!

[@guateque1718]

Thanks Tony. Did you finally get a fluke 112?

[@TonyAlbus]

Thanks!, yes i did, 110,111 and 112. still to come in a later FF

[@zdzisiek1979]

🙂 👍

[@TonyAlbus]

Thank you!

[@mp1454]

😮😊🎉

[@TonyAlbus]

Thank you!

[@LawpickingLocksmith]

I will just measure this again to prove it is not a Fluke.......

[@TonyAlbus]

LOL , yes :)
