Fluke DMM fading questions |
|
|
There are third-party Display Fade Kits for Fluke multimeters. Gives
me an impression, from used/for sale Flukes, that fading is an
inevitable outcome. Any opinion of the the fading/durability of the
Fluke 87, 111, 110, 112, or 81438 models? Are any Fluke multimeters
immune (or less-apt) from display fade?
I'm asking this because Fluke multimeters cost $300-$400 for the new
models replacing the 80 series.
What I want is the Fluke's alert beeps when a new min/max is sensed.
Are there any other brands of multimeters that have this feature?
Why do Fluke multimeter LCD displays fade? Any Fluke model immune?

Low batteries? I think that this happen with most LCD displays (happens
with the LCD of my radio and of my calculator).

My solution has been to remove the display (carefully) and clean up the
"zebra" strips both top and bottom and clean the display and PCB. Then
replace (try not to put your fingers on the strips)
It has worked for me on a few meters I have played with
