Workshop Project #34 - Fluke 5100B
Now what did I get myself into now?! I was browsing e-bay and looking for some affordable - that is below 5 digit including delivery - solutions for reference voltages and currents; as in calibration refrences for my ever growing multimeter collection. So that they at least agree to a certain degree and are close enough to a real absolute value to comfortable switch between them during repairs.
Now the only affordable model I found was a Fluke 5100B calibrator. It can deliver AC and DC current and voltages in a rather broad range: from millivolt to 1100 volts and microamps to 2 amps. Both in DC and AC. There was a problem with the delivery though and I still think that the company behind e-bay global shipping service should compensate me for the additional cost in replacing the cheaper one of the two devices that they lost in transit... seriously: how does one loose a 40kg package?
This one - the second best offer I found - required some "close your eyes and click buy now" and my wallet feels considerably lighter now. Let's see what I got and how well it works... or not!
