Had to choose between two multimeters for daily bench work...

I was stuck deciding between the Fluke 87V and the Brymen BM869s for my avionics bench setup. Ended up going with the Fluke because of the warranty support from the local supplier in Tucson. It's been about 4 months now and the peak hold has been super useful for catching intermittent signal drops on some older comm radios. The Brymen had better accuracy specs on paper but the Fluke just felt more solid in my hands during calibration checks. Anyone else run into this choice and pick the other one?

Tbh the Fluke reliability is hard to argue with once you've used it daily.

@hugo50 You're absolutely right, once you get used to a Fluke everything else feels like a downgrade. The way they handle daily abuse on a job site is honestly unmatched by any other brand I've tried. Mine has taken so many drops and still reads perfectly, it's kind of ridiculous.
