Review on Fluke FC Wireless Digital Multimeter by Charley Prz

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Fluke PC3000. Don't buy this. Use the mobile app instead.

The Fluke PC3000 Wireless Computer Adapter is a lame excuse for what the Fluke Connect mobile app offers. You might think the PC version would have more features, not less. Here are the main device/software gotchas: - Allows you to retrieve only the actually logged measurements from the device for actual numbers. (This makes it impossible to receive data from the FC3000 as it doesn't log data. It also makes it impossible to display multiple measurements in the same timeline, e.g. AAC and VAC in the same timeline for accurate VA measurements.) - Allows You to view all the charts of your different devices but only take screenshots one by one. (This is a graph only, not a chart, so you are estimating actual values.) - Does not allow you to capture real-time data in numeric form. (I mention this twice because it's a deal breaker.) - It takes quite a while to actually add displays. (It's not a big deal, but rather annoying). In general, Fluke was really wrong on this point. Releasing such an underdeveloped product/software was a mistake and I sincerely hope they learn from it. I will now use the mobile app. Computers are stupid.

Pros
  • There's a Thing
