Ill check it for you, but that is VERY weird. Can you tell me exactly what you want me to check?
Ehh fluke is ok, they are WAY overpriced. Extech makes really good ones, kiethly really makes some of the best. Fluke you just pay for the name, don't get me wrong they are GREAT meters, but for measuring DC voltage under 40v there is no difference, you could use a 10 dollar meter and it would give you an accurate measurement.
True RMS meters are also NOT needed at all and wont make any difference. All our measurements from DC are from a sin wave, so true RMS allows measurement of other types of waves, which is VERy important when measuring AC current, BUT you wont be doing. Fluke meters also come with 10 year warranties, but DMM tech has come such a far way you can buy a 10 dollar one and when it starts to gotoyou can buy a new one. So don't get me wrong fluke makes great DMMs, but not necessarily any difference between its readings and a much cheaper brand. They prob will last much longer though. The funny part is that fluke says people love their meters is because they measure both AC and DC voltage and frequency, well i am sorry but a 10 dollar DMM does the same now(well not frequency).
Something to look for in a meter is accuracy like i posted above, those specs are available for every meter you buy.
Id buy from these companies though not in anty order:
Fluke Extech
Klien
Kiethly
milwakee
Kiethly and milwakee being more expensive. The problem i have with very expensive DMMs is that you never use their other functions that come with that price. You could also buy a scope for $200 bucks lol and that would beat out any DMM, of course a scope takes skill you gotta know more than just stick it here and there.
