I know this is quite a bit later after I originally posted this but I pulled the trigger on the IR 119 max today. Will arrive on Wednesday.

Well it was decided today. Talked the guy down to 100 dollars for the fluke 175. Picked it up an hour ago and it looks brand new. Took it to a buddies house who has a fluke 179 that gets calibrated every year for his job and everything was the exact same from this one to his. I think for a meter...

Does anyone have any experience with the power probe cat-iv?

Good morning, I am a heavy equipment road tech and looking to upgrade my low quality multimeter, I am between two right now but am also welcome to suggestions that don’t break the bank. Option 1 is a like new Fluke 175 on marketplace for 100 dollars, it does not come with leads and the one...

Heavy equipment road tech is the application but I think the trigger thing still is important. I think I’m now leaning away from the chief.

Need an air hammer every once in a while, between the chief long barrel which is on sale right now for $120 (I don’t think it comes with bits) or the IR 119max kit for $150 ish. Any input on if one outweighs the other for some reason?

Settled on 18pc wright grip 2.0s, ordered them today.

Thank you very much! This was a lot of good info! I will be looking into all of this.

I do want opinions just didn’t feel like it needed to turn into an argument.

Would you like me to send it to the other guy as well to be fair?

You’re kinda making this into an argument I just wanted opinions. Both yall probably have good info so let’s keep it civil.

I’m definitely leaning towards the wright for a full kit, I want 7-24 because past 24 I have Tektons, but I do like the idea of maybe buying some single wrenches in sizes we use constantly to see what I think.

Very impressed on the amount of replies, I’m on some hunting forums where you don’t get half this many replies this fast. Thank you for all the info and any other ideas are welcome!

Tools being lost or stolen is not much of an issue here. I double and triple check every drawer on my truck before leaving a job and every tool has a place so I know if something is missing.

You bring up a good question. I honestly hadn’t really thought about icon.
