Yep. In this case, the old adage "you get what you pay for" is certainly true. Fluke makes good meters.

Do not buy the Keithley 2100 DVM

I haven\'t bought anything from Keithley for a while but, in all
fairness, I paid a good price for this old girl more than a few years
ago and she\'s always stood me in good stead:

Yep. But that's like old Tektronix stuff versus the new crap :-(

I love to cook with wine Sometimes I even put it in the food
Fluke got out of the precision $1000-range benchtop DVM biz for a number of years; I'm glad they're back.
I like all the color digital Tek scopes we've bought lately, maybe a dozen by now. They work great and none have broken so far. Have you had problems?
I was disappointed when Keithley slapped their name on a Chinese re-brand, apparently without testing it much.

What really bugs me,a 21+ yr. TEK employee(ex-TEK now...),is their eliminating component-level circuit schematics from their "service" manuals.
DAMN those TEK beancounters/upper management!
you can't believe how much "well,H-P doesn't do that" crap from management.
I wonder if Danaher will turn them around? Doubtful.

Big mistake, John.
You are giving access to the entire directory.
Send it to me please. I want to "crawl" through it and see what oddball tricks they used.
It's my public FTP site.
