T6 PRO Vs T6 1000 Unboxing - Fluke Fridays - Episode 10

[@chrisfyfe1476]

Thanks for the update ! I concur with your conclusion , in re : price to value !

[@matthewellis3004]

I wonder why the PRO doesnt have the finger ground feature... I thought the wireless ground was one of the super duper features so no need to attach probe physically to ground, ... So why not have that feature on the PRO??

[@fridayswithbrandon]

I think there was a lot of confusion around this. And you do get greater discrepancy between users when then meter is user your body's internal impedance as it's grounding source. But if you want to do this with the pro, just pinch the metal part of the black probe and it will give you a reading as though you had a finger pad.

[@Kevthebish]

You use the pro when your wearing hot gloves, that's why it doesn't have a finger ground point. Don't buy it unless you on a 100% glove jobsite

[@matthewellis3004]

@@Kevthebish I got the Pro. Figured it’s easy to find a ground almost always

[@Kevthebish]

@@matthewellis3004 Not so easy to find a ground when working on public utilities, especially lighting when you've lost the ground

[@matthewellis3004]

@@Kevthebish could you use the bezel or the mounting arm like on a street light?

[@gurumurthyarun]

Can you buy the alligator clip and install it on T6-1000 later..

[@capitanbombacha]

Great video man! Thanks for sharing.

[@junior5531]

Would recommend to upgrade to the T6 -1000 pro if you already have the T6-1000.

[@revg2608]

I’ve watched this video a couple times the based on your recommendation I bought the T6 Pro. Now, I was very disappointed in the packaging spending this type of money😱😳 Anyway, I remind myself it’s not the 378FC I purchased for dang near 3x’s the price😢. Great video, I’ll hang around for Fluke info Thanks!

[@FlyingSparks12336]

Disappointed in the packaging ?!😂 This isn’t an iPhone you’re unboxing

[@Kevthebish]

The "PRO" version is meant to be used in situations when you have hot gloves on, thats why it doesn't have a finger ground point. 90% of electricians don't need it or won't want it.....just sayin

[@frd672000]

it change automatic volt to continuit, as TPRO?

[@wm79198]

Does field sense setting work on phase to phase voltage? Or is it only going to pick up the phase to ground voltage? For example I want to measure voltage at a pole light and need know if the light is running on 480 or 277

[@fridayswithbrandon]

I think only phase to ground. But if you want phase to phase you should check out the 377 or 378.

[@SamtheoriginalClassic]

Is there a difference in the probes? It looks like the T6 has flatter probes.

[@fridayswithbrandon]

I don't think so both the T6-1000 & T6-1000 PRO come with TP1 test probes. www.fluke.com/en-us/product/accessories/test-leads/tp1

[@SamtheoriginalClassic]

@@fridayswithbrandon they look flat in the link you sent. At least on one side

[@SamtheoriginalClassic]

@@fridayswithbrandon Fluke TP1 Slim-Reach Flat Blade Test Probe?

[@fridayswithbrandon]

@@SamtheoriginalClassic yes they are at. Designed to fit into outlets.

[@matthewellis3004]

Have you seen AVE video on the T6 1000(non pro) where he claims the finger ground button conducts 110v through it when positive test lead is touching hot leg? Wonder your thoughts on this. I can’t believe that fluke would make a product that would shock you like he claims..

[@fridayswithbrandon]

I'm not familiar. But I'm confident that is not possible. Fluke would not have put a product out that would do that. It would be the same concept as saying if you touch a red lead to hot and grab the black lead you will get shocked. It's just not true.

[@marvin3872]

Look up Mr. Modemhead he does a great job of explaining what’s going on with the voltage that’s detected .

[@2loco]

AVE is a knob who talks so much crap. I used to follow him but I've grown up and no longer watch his nonsense videos.

[@mjmjersey]

I was wondering if that back botton accidentally touched the cabinet or panel or ground would there be any danger. Second would the t6 - 1000 be as accurate as the pro t6-1000 if I used the alligator clip

[@fridayswithbrandon]

The T6 would be just as accurate as the pro if using the common lead or alligator clip. You will not be in danger any more than if the common lead touched the cabinet or panel.

[@prayertool]

Straight forward. I like that. Thank you so much

[@adventurish9197]

Can we see them in action

[@АлексейВладимирович-г2э9т]

Получил т6 1000pro из китая, напряжение очень занижает при бесконтактном измерении, даже если провод на земле, а не в руке. Зря они отказались от сенсорной пластинки, ведь и на приборе без «pro» можно щуп заземлить

[@frd672000]

Are LOZ? Ghost volt

[@fridayswithbrandon]

here is an article Fluke has to explain. www.fluke.com/en-us/learn/blog/digital-multimeters/dual-impedance-digital-multimeters

[@logonalmay9056]

Does it test capacitors?

[@fridayswithbrandon]

no these do not.

[@devkashsingh4691]

Good video my bro

[@asadbabilbabil7791]

Very good

[@alvilla701]

Can I change (upgrade) the leads? To something similar to the TL175

[@fridayswithbrandon]

You can switch out the probes for the TP175, but they won't snap into the back probe holding slots. (the TP175 are a bit bigger than the original probes)

[@2loco]

Id prefer to have a direct connection to ground vs touching a dicky pad on the back of the meter.
