Does anyone know just how good the Fluke FLUPV350 is? Does anyone own (or owns one and knows someone that owns the other)both the firstlook and the Fluke and if so could they compare waveforms on the same car? I am wondering just how they compare to each other. I do know that Fluke makes the TOUGHEST test equipment I have ever used. I have a Fluke 87 III and that DMM has been through hell and I wouldn't trade it for anything. If their FLUPV350 is accurate/sensitive on gas engines and is as tough as their dmms I am sold on one.
i have both the 87(3) and the pv350... that 87 is the best meter i've ever used, the dealer i worked for had one and they also had a very restricted pico i was able to play with after hours, hell thats where all my madness started, then i screwed up and bought a fluke196c scopemeter, which i later found out is good for what it is... pv350- it works great as tom stated, i've always used mine for diesel fuel pressure and boost testing with my dmm, i dont use it much for running compression because im paranoid of burning it up, but when i do it saves the day- if you dont have one you should get one, doesnt work for fuel/exhaust pulsetesting, but you know what cheep device does Lips Sealed Cool

Hi.
Didn’t think about scoping the cylinder before joining this forum.  Embarrassed

I have the Fluke PV500 and did a quick test with the Pico.
I tried the Bosch Vac/pressure transducers too.
The WPS is probably better and more accurate.  Smiley

Must find more time to get familiar to the test results.  Roll Eyes
But here are a couple of pictures.
