- Part one of a two part series on the Fluke 289. This video is my first look and impression of the meter and some basic meter functionality testing.

👍👍
Great video, thank you for taking the time to create it.
great review loved it, hope you come up with more material.
Wide review. detailed and informative.
Yeeeaahhh.. first time watching your videos... SUBSCRIBED.. you deserve a LOT more views hahaha... You're doing a fantastic job.. POWEEEERRR!!!
Has Part 2 been made yet? I can't find the link to it.
nice review mate, keep the multimeter reviews coming!!
Thank James. They will continue to flow. :-)
Will this meter do real time voltage graphing ?
Can you help --I purchased a very cheap VICI VC60B insulation tester--- I had my fluke stollen and needed a cheap replacement . what i noticed is - the vc60b appears to read a DC voltage in the AC range , --- My trusty old Wavetech multimeter wont read a DC v in the Ac range --------- You appear to be very knowledgeable --- is the cheap meter ok or has it a fault --- when i read a car 12v battery in the AC range it read 24v , I applied the AC range by mistake whilst checking my car battery -- you can imagine my surprise when i took a reading of 24v ac , lol any way if you have an idea please advise and educate me
Thanks

Thanks. The fact that there's a boot time, put me right off this meter.
You said, part 1, where is part 2? Please, could you compare the precision of the 189 against 289, maybe using a high precision bench multimeter? (Voltage, Current, Resistance, Capacitance, etc in for very small values) Thank you.
If you buy this meter. Just buy the test lead kit. You will need it. Along with the Amp Clamps. Temp Probe. etc.. As this thing does a shit ton of things he never touched on. As it can log 3 types of event at once.
I thought that I've read about Brymen as being a Taiwan based manufacturer (so pretty much chinese) and it has nothing to do with Germany or Japan whatsoever.....Brymen is just a name that they picked and it doesn't mean is german just because it sounds like it. Brilliant review by the way. Thumbs up.
Hmm they must put different probes in different kits. My 117 came with the tl75s but my 289 came with nicer silicone probes in the kit
The fact is that Fluke TL75 leads and probes are really cheap stiff vinyl crap. That's also what came with my brand new 87-V. On meters in this price range I would have expected quality silicone leads from Fluke.
Also, @15:03 in the video, why would the symbol for potentially hazardous voltage (the little lightning bolt) come on for a 5 VDC reading ?
Agreed. The TL75 are probably the worst Fluke leads I have ever used. They are also in the worst Leads ever used category. I have some cheap leads sub USD10 that are nicer to use. My opinion. It just pops us once the logging is complete. I will test my Fluke 287 once I receive it this week to see if it does the same thing.
Thanks for the reply...and the video too !
I have both the 189 and the 289 but I like the 189’a lot more than the 289 to be honest for 99% of the time. It’s just much more straight-forward and it doesn’t devour batteries like there’s no tomorrow.
It actually does devour batteries in my opinion. The 189. But I understand your point.
Me too. Used the 187 for 2 years at work when we transitioned to the 287. But gee what a piece of shit the 287 is... It takes nearly 10 seconds to boot (what the actual fuck needs to boot in a multimeter?) and measurements (and especially continuity) are considerably slower than on the 187. Paired with the strange menu-items you need to go into to get specific functions going (which only required one press on the 187) and especially the bad readability of the 287/289 screens (significantly smaller digits, bad contrast, extremely glaring lcd window) I do not fully understand what Fluke is trying to achieve with these meters, except for making a far more bulky meter that does everything worse than its precessor.
Thanks for these reviews. A little bit of feedback - would it be possible to remove the plastic on the displays so we can see them clearly? Thanks. Rick.
Will be doing so from here on fourth.
Is there a part 2?
Would be nice if you remove the screen protection when doing a review, you can always stick it on again.
Javier Palla Lorden pealed half of the screen protector of my 87 back and stuck it back.have a shit ton of bubbles now!
I was going to say that, very annoying.
if you take it off you can't put it back the way it was before, it gets full of bubbles. I own both a 289 and an 87-v and haven't removed the protection from either.
You miss the REL setting for Caps
Você ainda tem o fluke 189 ?
Quer vender ?
Why the plastic on the display? especially the old one WTFF.
Boa noite de portugal
Where is the Part 2 ?
Will be coming out soon. Sorry for delays a few large projects stole some of my time.
Coming soon. :-)
Part 2?
Fluke 87V
Boa noite

A multimeter this expensive and it doesn't have auto-hold?
Nice review, please don't do any more.
Indian price
Nearly a lakh rupees!
Autoranging in ohms range is painfully slow. Don't like it.
Very later to the party but: hell yeah. It's so slow that at work (where we used the 187's before transitioning to the 287's) I thought the unit I was testing was defective... Continuity/resistance testing isn't the only thing that's slow. The 187's beat them in basically every measurement when it comes to speed. And what I really don't get is the boot-time of nearly 10 seconds...
No es bueno gasta mucha bateria no sirve.
La duracion de las bateria no diran.
Doesn't prove anything to short the leads. It good enough for electronic circuit work. People need to stop all the test leads for super fast connectivity. Come on enough is enough. Why do we spend this kind of money for test equipment to do our jobs. Dam cool it..
