My old Fluke 73 just keeps plugging along.

I have mentioned this before about cheap meters is that they are poorly fused.
If you screw up with them on A/C volts you could have a smoking melted pile of plastic in your hand.

The fusing in a Fluke meter is great and while it is not impossible to damage one by misuse or misadventure, the fuses protect the user too.

I think the last calibration date on my meters was back in 1997. I have gone a wee bit over the interval.
