Haven't seen anything about this yet.
Fluke is offering two new high-end DMM's: the 287 and 289. They are basically new versions of the 187/189 with the main new feature being TrendCapture, or something like that, which measures the wave form of the voltage over time, etc. Basically, it look sorta like a hand held oscilloscope.
This of course begs 2 questions:
1.) Are any of the new features that would be specifically useful to diyer's and...
2.) Does anyone know where overstock/discontinued 187/189 models might be purchased from, perhaps at a reduced price point.
Yeah, Fluke is discontinuing 187/189, which means if you want a DMM with a 50,000 count display you'll have to fork over the $400+ dollars for the 287.
What do you guys think?
