David looks so happy, he finally gets to play whit another brand of mft 😍 watch all your videos,

[@ChauvinArnouxUK]

He certainly likes his MFTs and his endorsement means a lot

2 wire no trip is a must for real world commercial and industrial eicr work. This looks great apart from that. I'm keeping my powder dry re the latest megger. Being able to update the software is awesome in theory. I'm yet to see relife benefits for the extra bucks in my world though. If solar testing suddenly popped up on a menu and pqa was already a feature, well, to coin a phase, that would be a "game changer" and go a long way to justifying some of these prices.

Auto test is not a deal breaker for me, it's a good little setting to have on your MFT but not for everyday testing. This looks like a great bit of kit 👌🏻. Nice to see David on his best behaviour for 30 minutes 😂.

[@ChauvinArnouxUK]

@JBE thanks for your feedback and glad you like the MFT. We did manage to edit out all Dave's foul language, beer swilling and diva like behaviour to give the impression of him behaving for once... 🤣
