“You can get a Fluke 17B on Amazon for $120 right now. I have a 117 that's like 15 years old and shows no signs of ever failing, but those are a little more expensive.”
“Thanks, that's good advice - the $50 delta now to guarantee new and working is close enough to my budget. I'm avoiding Amazon but I'll see where deals can be had on the 117.”
