Glad to help! I got a Surge as well and was quite surprised with how heavy it was. I now understand why some of my camping friends said it was too heavy for backpacking.

Also, the link for the 2022 program is here: https://www.leatherman.com/pro.html They indicate they are potentially going to include some more professions later this year.

Forgot to mention, I received my multitool and it is great! Didn't realize it already came with a sheath so I ended up with two.

As the title states, Leatherman is offering a 40% off discount for First Responders, Military/Veterans, Medical Professionals, and Teaching Staff/Students. The categories do require verification via a 3rd party (SheerID) which may be a killer for some people, but they seem to be reasonably...

The USA actually has pretty strict standards are what "Made In The USA" means. Many other countries, not so much.

Yuji LED - They are a Chinese company and manufacture a wide-range of LEDs (chips, strips, modules, and lamps) with phenomenally high quality light production. They specialize in LEDs for extremely demanding niche markets like museum lighting, professional photography, etc. Based on the target...

Fluke owns Pomona. The Pomona 5519A test leads are virtually identical to the Fluke TL71 test leads (just some slightly different stamping around the manufacturer name).

Really really NICE and compact setup! I have the exact same ruler, just badged Precision Engineering Inc. (the OEM for that ruler). I need to throw that in my case as well I am happy with the PicoFinish handle for now since it is ESD. If I decide to upgrade in the future, I will look for a ESD...

FYI I just checked out the new picofinish handle it is far better than the old System 4 one. It functions better, has an integrated magnet, fits my hands better, and best of all it is easy to insert and remove tips. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

We shipped a present cross country for my mom via USPS And it is currently 5v days late and counting. So it is a thing. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

As I stated in my previous post, they look like TL75s. TL75s are are one piece construction, though, as I stated before, Fluke does have slip on alligator clips for those probes. Personally, I would go with ProbeMaster as well. I really really like them. The only reason I didn't suggest them...

To clarify on this, Fluke owns Pamona and a number of Fluke test leads are rebadged Pomona and vice versa. Also, those look like TL75 leads. AC175 is the part number for the slip on alligator clips for TL71, TL75, and TL175. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

That is correct. Fluke updated the ADC between the III and the V (which is why the V is 6000 count resolurion). Honestly, almost any modern meter is capable of AT LEAST 1000uF with >5000uF being ideal. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

The 87III lacks temperature, is only a 4000 count meter, has worse safety certification, can only measure capacitors up to 5uF, display/backlight are far worse. Beyond being abused with overvoltages, the biggest issues are blown HRC fuses ($5-15 a piece), the switch contacts wearing out...
