    FYI,Fluke are really good meters but are NOT bulletproof and are not built like a tank anymore.
    I have 2 dead Fluke 179 that weren't warranty.I dropped one from about 6-7 feet high and the display broke.The other one was dirty inside from being use in a dirty shop and they refuse to honnor their warranty on that one too when it stopped working.
    They are good meters but for pinball hobby,you don't need a Fluke.Plenty of cheaper brands that will do the job as good as a Fluke.
    That being said,a multi meter is the most important tool in my day job...so i bought another Fluke 179.
