Reviews: Fluke 179 True-RMS Digital Multimeter
Rated 5 out of 5 by tveilleux from Exceptional value and reliability Been using Fluke 17x for many, many years. They are my standard order for any new employee who needs a meter and for any "new bench" supply. The 179 is high reliable and accurate. Battery lasts forever. All the features you need are there, easy to use. You can trust the measurements. Some may say the Name adds a needless price tag difference, but the devil is in the details and I disagree.
Features that really make the difference:
- Fast and accurate continuity check (easily one of the most commonly used and important features in product development labs)
- Fast bargraph
- Very accurate TrueRMS AC measurements.
- Very high input impedance.
- High quality probes.
It's the portable version of a bench meter, if you don't need the few extra features and resolution of the 87V.
I have dropped these and seen them dropped tens of times, never seen one break. Only had to change 1 battery, after many years.
You can't go wrong with a 17x.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bandu from Very good. I have been using fluke 179 meter for two years. It is a wonderful miter sanwa and mico works ten times better. This meter has changed my work and time a lot.

Rated 5 out of 5 by booboo from Excellent accuracy Ever since EE school, Fluke has always been my go-to multimeter in the last 3 decades for electronics work. But it has always been limited to bench meters, I don't have the same need for high accuracy for portable use and my 8 portable multimeters has been other brands like Sanwa, Extech, and disposable Harbor Freight which I use on-the-go. I have a NIST calibrated voltage standard, I know my Sanwa and Extech meters are all within spec (+/- 1-3%), but never spot on.
I decided to purchase the 179 (non-NIST) as a more robust handheld meter, out-of-the-box, it is the only meter that is spot on even at its highest resolution at multiple reference voltages. It doesn't have the resolution of the bench meters, but I thought the meter have every bit of the quality that is worthy of the Fluke name.

Rated 5 out of 5 by JB2833 from Great Control and Electrical Meter This meter is great! I work as a systems control technician and i have to say this meter is both user friendly and very reliable. I primarily use this meter on Automation controls to trouble shoot and perform point to point inspections on hvac controls. But I also use this meter on vfds, motors, actuators and micro controllers. If your looking for a durable meter that can do a lot, this one is it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by James S from Perfect! I have had my 179 for a year or so now and I am very impressed with this unit. This meter replaced my perfectly working 112, which now stays home for trouble shooting around the house while my 179 goes to the job and puts money in my pocket. Someone once told me "you are only as good as your tools", and having the 179 on the job gives me the confidence to trust my readings. I am super happy, with all of my fluke purchases.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Mahfu from Good all around I picked up a 179 recently and I'm very happy with it. I was up and using it within minutes of taking it out of the box. It has all the features I need and work, around the house, and with my hobby electronics. The construction is solid and the controls are easy to use. I'm looking forward to years of use with this meter.

Rated 5 out of 5 by chriscl14 from Must have True RMS Multimeter I originally purchased this while I was in Electronics Engineering and Robotics Automation schooling. I never would have imagined I would use it on a day to day basis outside of my career and schooling. Perfect for automotive applications. I cannot tell you durable this thing is and how many times I have dropped it on the hard concrete garage floor diagnosing electrical drains on my truck. The Hold and backlit features are second to none. No need to go back multiple times to remember what you measured. I highly recommend this model. Helps me on my day to day basis with my current job diagnosing alarm systems as well as 66 blocks. Works well for high and low voltage applications.
