I'm going to take a licking for saying so...
I don't know what Fluke has to offer these days, and they are probably made in China regardless, but I blame them for the bad rap that DMMs take. Guys complain about waiting for the digital display to settle down and whatnot.
I've only experienced such oddities when using a Fluke. I think they are about 20 years behind in technology. Ok, granted, they were good meters in their day as was the Simpson 260. Maybe still catering to an older customer. I'm sure they have 2009-era devices but I don't think I could afford them.
I searched my cheapo $29 meter and find its made by " Zhangzhou Weihua Electronic Co., Ltd. " Haha. Zhangu-what@!!
Not dissing your choice of meter, mind you, but I gather that you see as I do that you have to learn the oddities of any type of meter. I'll take my Zhangu-what over anything from Fluke that I can afford.
Sorry for stepping on any toes.
