That was an excellent review!!!!!!! Most reviews on youtube either are stupid unboxing events or just plain useless that just waste time. You got right to the point, highlighting things about this meter I can appreciate even more. Thanks bro!!
Can I use field sence with the alligator clip on the neutral to read voltage or does it have to be on the ground. Some old wiring did not have ground wires and sometimes the conduit rusts away there by loosing the ground
You can, might not be quite as accurate but should work. Also if you want to get really creative you can also just hold the common (black) lead the (metal part) between your fingers and it should give you the ability to get a reading. It will be even less accurate using your body's impedance but it will get you in the ball park.
With the regular version, you can take measurements without ground or neutral present (bad writing or want to check if something is energized). Not with high precision, but... Hopefully, you see where am I going...
@@Dextermorga this is true. But if you wanted to take a measurement with the PRO version without a ground. You could just hold the end of the common lead in your hand/pinch between your fingers and you will get the same effect as using the regular T6 with the grounding plate. But if you go with the regular T6 you will not get visual continuity.

Can't believe I'm just now finding your channel. Very awesome content you have. I like all things Fluke and meter related!
Super great and well explained video man! I really like the amount of knowledge you have about these tools. Great video keep up the good work!
really good review mate
Way to go, man! Very informative. Thanks for making these vids.
All good points ! I have the “ Old School” T6 1000 , no complaints , but the Pro package is a much better deal !
i love the jaws....helps hold the meter when not checking amps.
Thanks. This is a very helpful video.
Ive used the t5 -1000 before, but now i use the fluke 87v with the i400 current clamp
I would like to see a video on air quality meters please.
I don't have many of those tools. but I'll keep that in mind
I work on ships, with IT systems. Will current measurment work as good as in shore systems? i can not get any info about that any where.

@@fridayswithbrandon thank you so much. So my old t5 600 my wife accidentally broke.so would you day it's worth up grading to the flukevt6-1000 pro?
@@mjmjersey if you can afford it I would definitely upgrade.
@@fridayswithbrandon thank you so much for taking the time out.
Hello 👋 is the T6 pro better then a T6? They have a sale for the T6 but was thinking to get the pro.. but not sure if they are that much better
See this video and let me know if you still have questions. th-cam.com/video/1fx4AS5svXs/w-d-xo.html

The resolution of 1ohm being the smallest reading ruins it for me! No mandatory testing can be done with this without a decimal place!
You can do HZ also now
Does it read dc current, non-contact?
No it does not read DC current at all.
👍👍
👍 good
meak excuse for spending more
Ohh God another review, where the reviewer doesn't understand true potential grounding plate 🤦♂️
T6 is to big. I regret buying it
@@mijboogie sorry to hear that
