Hello All
Lately my old Fluke 87 have been behaving erratically , display fading, eating batteries in matter of days , measures going up/down constantly even without leads even connected and the like.
Since this is a very old meter , i was thinking wheter it was worth or not to have it repaired/serviced/calibrated , a call to a representative yielded a quote of about 100$ plus S/H.
So what would you guys suggest? a new tester? wich one would be better suited for light use in laptop/lcd troubleshouting wich i've started to get into recently?, or should i just repair the old one?.
Ive considered getting the Blue ESR meter , so in case you suggest a good one what specs should i look for that would be a good complement for the esr meter?
Your insights are very appreciated , thanks in advance
