Welcome to a Laptop Battery specialist of the Fluke Battery
The Fluke Scopemeteres are famous and rightly so. High quality build with great features.But now the future has surpassed the current 190 series II with battery such as Fluke Ti-20 Battery , Fluke Ti20-RBP Battery , Fluke TiR Battery , Fluke TiR1 Battery , Fluke Ti10 Battery , Fluke Ti20 Battery , Fluke Ti25 Battery , Fluke 125 Battery , Fluke 125S Battery , Fluke BP120MH Battery , Fluke 43 Battery , Fluke 43B Battery .
The scope works more or less as their older models. Nothing new really. Battery capacity has improved and weather sealing is better. And they have introduced a 4 channel scope version without DMM function. But the rest of the instrument is stuck in the past. Screen has just about 0 viewing angle and low resolution. It is absolutely not viewable in sunlight at all and has not got very good contrast.
My old B/W Scopemeter 124 is so much more usable outside.Scope and DMM can't be used at the same time. And if you need to record - you can again not use DMM and Scope recording features at the same time.And then there is Fluke View. Connection now is with USB - which is much better than the old "IR" Serial/USB. But Fluke View still looks like it is made for Windows 3.1 - and stuck in the past.So in short - if you want a Fluke Scopemeter - there is no reason to get the Series 2 unless you need the 4 channel scope version. If you are looking at 2 scope channels and DMM - any older Scopemeter will serve you just as well.Pros:battery life, usb port, 4 channel scope version available
Cons:tft screen is really bad, dmm and scope cant be used at the same time, fluke view is not up to modern standards
