Automotive "An automotive technician's pay is heavily based on productivity. Any tool that saves you time makes you money. There are many routine tasks where this meter would help to do just that. I work out of 3 bays and often on several cars at once. Multi-tasking is a necessity. If I want to monitor parasitic drain on a battery of one car while doing something else two bays away, this meter would allow me to do that. Another reality of the job is having to do more from the driver's seat. With electronic throttle control you can no longer manipulate the throttle from under the hood or without being tethered to the scan tool. With this meter, underhood temperatures and readings can be monitored from the driver's seat without having to route the meter leads or strain to see the display. At the same time, this allows shorter leads to be used eliminating the worry of them being pinched, tripped over, or falling onto a hot exhaust pipe." M.H., Nebraska "We sometimes need to hook a meter to a control module and then drive the lift truck around while taking measurements. Sometimes the meters can't be mounted in a location that is easy to read while operating the lift trucks. With the Fluke 233, we could connect the base unit up to take measurements and mount the remote display on the instrument panel. This would be much safer than what we do today." J.H., Kentucky "I think that remote display would be great to sit in front of the windshield while the test leads are connected under the hood. There are many situations where I need to be inside the cab cranking the engine while looking at the display and that is impossible with conventional multimeters. Often times a second technician is necessary to look at a display or to crank the engine. The Fluke 233 would likely increase productivity and improve technician efficiency in many scenarios. I think it would also enhance personal safety because I am often near rotating engine components while trying to hold and read a display. I could connect and stand back and look at the display while in a safe location." S.B., Missouri 5
