Fluke 87 is the best multimeter I've ever used. At one of my jobs I used an older one for about 5 years, back in the early 2000s. It took daily abuse quite well. Never a moment of downtime. Even when battery got low usually you had plenty of warning before having to replace it. I have other meters, but I had to get an 87 again. I now have a personal 87-V. And I love it, it's by far my favourite meter. Nobody quite makes a meter like Fluke. And I think 87 series is their best, the perfect mix of ergonomics, ruggedness/protection and features.
I have a question for you HitAndMissLab, you say you got the calibration free from Fluke...I tried getting it and they charge me 200$ for the calibration, same model than yours. What did I do wrong?
I contacted Fluke and they want money to calibrate my meter. I don’t know what Fluke he’s contacting, but I’m an American in America and contacted Fluke America and they aren’t doing anything for free with my 87v.
Good afternoon writes Danilo Technical sell and Repair Computers in Republic Dominiacana have a Fluke 289 in my work and suddenly not want to climb as if the Software is damaged, I have the test probe wants me a little hand and tell me which are the two keys to be left down to do a factory reset. I await your prompt response. Danilo Computer Technician
+Servicios Tecnicos Integrales I am not sure 100%, but ... You can certainly do calibration yourself, but than you would need to brake some seals inside multi-meter. That would void your guarantee and Fluke wouldn't give you the certificate. Because they can't be sure of a calibration quality if users start doing it themselves. Now to do the calibration you would need some really expensive instruments. Or some very accurate voltage references.
It's great how you don't yell into microphone that is basically touching your tongue and how everything came out nice and clean..

Have you ever check the meter itself to see how many times that meter been calibrated?
Was there a cost for inspection? I'm assuming they would only cover the cost of repair but the inspection and shipping would be at your cost?
why arent they self calibrating?

pcsoto Soto i don't think I can help you. I don't even have Fluke 289. You are best off contacting Fluke directly.
How much did it cost to calibrate it? Thanks.
+chukchee $4.99 and free shipping.
Hi, a question: WHAT YOU DID TO GET THAT DOCUMENTATION? Thanks.
+Servicios Tecnicos Integrales They've sent the docs with the instrument, when it came back from the calibration.
+HitAndMissLab The calibration...is not possible to do by my self??
