Best HVAC Field Meter
After two decades in the HVAC industry, I was looking for a meter that would take care of the many needs I encounter as a technician in the field. The SC640 had everything and then some. Small extras like the lighted head when opening the jaws of the amp meter. The lighted mode for dark areas make reading the display and selection of mode a joy instead of frustration. The dual display for reading volts with the leads and taking an amp reading simultaneously is extremely beneficial. A lot of thought was put into the versatility and packaging of the many functions a technician uses in a meter for many applications. The swivel head allows for easier use when reaching hard to reach wiring and still taking a measurement in tight spots. The in-rush function is a blessing when diagnosing a compressor. Overall, the money spent on the SC640 is well worth the purchase. I would highly recommend this meter to anyone looking to improve their capability as a technician or a company looking to produce better service to their customers. I would not consider this a cheap upgrade but money well spent. I replaced another Fieldpiece meter with this one and I'm happy with the old one as a reliable backup if the need arises.
