Product overview: Automotive Multimeters: Fluke 88V/A Automotive Multimeter Combo Kit
A complete automotive diagnostic package with everything you need in an automotive multimeter. Fluke 88V has replaced the 88.
The Fluke 88V has improved measurement functions, troubleshooting features and accuracy to solve more problems on conventional and hybrid vehicles. The 88V is made in the U.S.A. and carries the industry leading lifetime warranty.
The Fluke 88V operates very similar to the classic Fluke 88, but with more problem solving power, safety, convenience and impact protection.
The 88V is independently tested to comply with the 2nd edition of ANSI/ISA S82.01 and EN61010-1 CAT IV 600 V/CAT III 1000 V. They can withstand impulses in excess of 8,000 V and reduce risks related to surges and spikes.
Other useful features:
- Lifetime warranty
- 6000 counts, 3-3/4 digits
- Measure up to 1000 V AC and DC
- Measure up to 10 A, 20 A for up to 30 seconds
- Built in thermometer lets you carry one less tool (temperature probe included)
- Frequency to 200 kHz and % duty cycle
- Resistance, continuity
- RPM measurements with inductive pickup
- Millisecond pulse width measurements for fuel injectors
- Magnet hanger to attach meter to the vehicle and free your hands for other tasks
- 10,000 µF capacitance range for components and motor caps
- Min/Max-Average recording with Min/Max Alert to capture variations automatically
- Peak capture to record transients as fast as 250 µs
- Relative mode to remove test lead interference from low ohms measurements
- Auto and manual ranging for maximum flexibility
- Touch Hold to capture stable readings avoiding noisy signals
- Large display digits and two-level bright white backlight for increased visibility
- Analog bargraph for fast changing or unstable signals
- Input Alert provides audible warning against wrong use of input jacks
- Improved selectable sleep mode for long battery life
- Access door for fast battery changes without opening up the case
- "Classic" design with new removable holster with built in test lead and probe storage
- 10 meg ohm input impedance wont load circuits
- 0.1% DC accuracy
Position the meter in the most usable location with the magnetic hanger
The holster on the new Fluke 88V accepts a small but extremely powerful magnet (Fluke Tpak) that holds the meter firmly to most steel surfaces. This allows you to focus on taking measurements instead of holding the meter in your hand.
Electrical safety
All inputs are protected to Category III, 1000 V and Category IV 600 V. They can withstand impulses in excess of 8,000 V and reduce risks related to surges

Rated 4 out of 5 by Mik65 from Great Features! This unit has many useful features and a nice assortment of accessories. If it came with 1 more TP81 piercing probe (black) as in other lead sets, I would give it a 5-star rating.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Dieseltech2 from The Best Meter Around Ive had this meter for about 6 years now and it been dropped so many times and pick it up and still works flawlessly. I only buy fluke products. This is only 1 of the 3 fluke meters that I use on a every day basis.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Bobcat753 from One Awesome Tool! I bought my Fluke 88V About two years ago. I am absolutely in love with it! I use it every time I do 12V installs and for setting idle speeds on small engines and larger equipment. I always mention it to other people and so far have never had a problem. Also the leads and accessories included are the best and most durable I have ever used. Overall this meter is a 100 in my books and I plan to buy at least 2 more in the future.

Rated 5 out of 5 by pwrstrk1 from Quality You Can Trust-For A Long Time! I have used a Fluke 88 of some variation over the last 30 years as an Automotive Technician and have been very satisfied. The only reason I bought this 88V model is to get the temperature feature that my old 88 did not have. I have had that old 88 for at least 20 years and it still is an awesome diagnostic tool that I can rely on time and again. The 88V control panel functions took a little bit to adjust to after so many years of the old 88 usage but the versatility of the 88V is so usable for diagnostics in the automotive field that it was well worth learning how to use it properly. I also use other Fluke tools but encourage any professional automotive technician to consider the 88V as the base of their electrical diagnostic tool lineup. When used to it's full potential by a trained technician there isn't much you can't diagnose correctly electrically on a vehicle be it a conventional or hybrid breed. Please keep making this meter!
