Best Multi Function Tester and why?

[rolyberkin]

I have an old Metrel which is fine but would really like an MFT which can do continuity without having to keep pressing test and also has a memory and earth rod test built in, what are your best suggestions, or what do use and why do you like it?

The new high end fluke has a built in pre test for insulation resistance testing. It will change the voltage down if it thinks there's anything attached to the circuit. Not seen it but sounds good for the paranoid spark, but probably a bit unnecessary.

I love my Megger. Had a 1730 for a few years now. Rechargeable rather than buying batteries, testing is quick and has fallen of steps loads of times and still working fine!

My 1552 Megger gave me a belt today - 500v testing before a board swap and I was queening the croc clip. First time I’ve done that, wasn’t expecting it - made me giggle!
My megger has been amazing today for finding a high R1/R2 fault to a high resistance joint with the wander lead.
I treated it to a new set of leads for the Calibration centre. I need to change the batteries 9.5v it’s reading (unknown territory)

Brekkie time at mine, so this might be it

All quiet on the Kewtech front tonight? Thought you might just extol its' virtues?
