Have the B model Keysight and 2 flukes. I don't ever use the fluke anymore. Maybe if you are outdoors and working on high voltage the fluke would be better. In a lab this is waayyy better.
Well, I understand why they tried to push OLED matrix screens for meters 6 years ago. 1) It is easier to configure display element layout on the fly without manufacturing separate displays for each meter model (simpler for mass production). And OLED was a cool buzzword for uneducated at that time. Obviously it come together with problems to see readings in bright light and horrible energy efficiency. So don't make and purchase multimeters with OLED screens – does not worth it.
Nothing wrong with Malaysia, Intel's very first CPU was produced there as well. Got quite a manufacturing history there. The thumbs up is complete bullshit. The meter may have gotten all the bling right, has all the wow-factor elements, but it's plain unusable.
Hello Dave I don't know what exactly make you satisfied 50000 $ multimeter or what ? Everything for you is bad and slow and fail omg I will be so happy to have only the 9 v battery. Lol
Well, for those who do not know, the Dave´s analysis of this multimeter is sarcastic, where it is obvious to realize the quality of the equipment reviewed.
Maybe theyve improved the meter since this old review, but im surprised at how dave points out the glaring faults: poor assembly, abysmally short battery life, less than stellar input protection, costs more than a Fluke 87V etc etc then he drools all over it and gives it a thumbs up – thats a pretty obvious paradox, reminds me of a cheap double talking lawyer – or a washington politician. This thing is a high priced pile of shit with a nice looking display that doesnt even compare to the quality of an 87V. It literally devours batteries, thats another thing – a meter like this should have four AA batteries or a capable rechargeable, but maybe 6v isnt enough to feed that hog of a display. I hate to rant on whats supposed to be a high quality meter, but its exposed here for the pretender it is – it takes a big set of balls to build something with this many faults, compare it to the 87V and charge an even higher price. I will say we have dave to thank for exposing this high priced pretender for what it really is – hopefully Agilent has stepped up their game and improved later versions.
The one thing that stopped me from buying one was the reports from users who said that the display gets dim after a while, and so dim that the meter becomes unusable. There is no excuse for that, and if Agilent/Keysight doesn't extend the warranty to cover the failure of the display, that will be the end of Agilent meters for me.
I don't like that it charges via the leads, it make it unusable while charging! Now it only last for about 8 hours would it not be better that it charger while making longer measurements? 🙂
Please can a decent HMM have normal fuses like a meter man unlike fluke with their buss fuses which cost a lot the number of Dmm's I see with blown buss fuses it is really hard to justify spending £12 on an 11A and £7 on a 400mA buss fuse from fluke when a normal glass fuse costs pence please main well known known manufacturers reduce the cost of fuses or change cheaper fuses.

These are all low cost chainise probes.🤣🤣🤣🤣
what is the internal resistance of this multimetter?
After 12 years … you just trying to show your eyes bigger
I have 3 of them and none of them rattles
The jerkiness of this video is enough to induce seizures! My, how the quality of our video cameras has improved over the last 10 years.
Error appears when using Is there a solution

the OLED displays fail and keysight no longer supports repair.

Do I have to change fuses every day?
the autoranging in this 2010 device is still faster than his own multimeter lol

That thing should use 4 AA batterries. Eneloops
Did he ever test the B-version ?
I didn't find a test about it
Meter Killed.

When are they going to use a couple 18650's for multimeters?

Wheres the U1253B review?
I don't like that it charges via the leads, it make it unusable while charging!
Now it only last for about 8 hours would it not be better that it charger while making longer measurements? 🙂
i own this crap. the display has now dimmed to where its hardly visible in the dam dark. wont be buying from them or keysight again

Hi , some time please make a review of Motwane M65 multimeter. its made in India product and very good quality .
