For the more advanced multimeter user (or lover of cool stuff). The Fluke 279 FC is about as fully featured as a multimeter can get. With both a full color LCD and a thermal imager feature, the 279 FC might just be worth it for not having to test the temperature of components with your fingers. In addition, the ability to work with the iFlex current clamps make it super versatile in working in tight spaces where full sized probes simply won’t fit. For those looking for a top of the line multimeter, this is your choice.

The 279 covers all the features you would expect from a Multimeter such as AC voltage with low-pass filter, DC voltage, Resistance, Continuity, Capacitance, Diode test, Min/Max/Avg, AC current (with iFlex), Frequency. What sets it apart is the inclusion of a color display, thermal imager, and the ability to log measurements wirelessly to a mobile phone. The rechargeable lithium battery makes for a nice addition as well. Fluke also provides a strong catalog of accessories that can make the 279 FC a much more powerful tool than it already is.
