Fluke 289 Review

This is a review of the Fluke 289 multimeter for use in hobby electronics projects primarily related to amateur radio. This review was produced to help you decide if the Fluke 289 multimeter will fit your purpose and budget. This is part of a series of multimeters reviews. A good multimeter for hobby electronic projects should be able to measure millivolts, volts, microamps, milliamps, amps, ohms, nanofarads and microfarads. If you want to measure picofarads, nanohenry, microhenry or reactance you will need a LCR meters. I cover the two LCR meters I own in another review. I am not a professional, I am a hobbyist. This review is not sponsored; I bought this multimeter with my own money. I only used and tested this multimeter in CAT I and CAT II environments. I do not have a way to review or test the safety of this meter. I leave the CAT III and CAT IV environments to trained and licensed professionals. It may seem like I am a Fluke fan boy, but I recognize their flaws...
