Probably the best thing about this meter is the button located on the red lead that initiates the insulation tests. Without it, you would have to hold the test lead in one hand, and simultaneously hold the meter and press the button with the other hand.

It has a premium price, but the high voltage resistance setting is well worth it for testing insulation on long cable runs.If you don't need to check insulation, there are plenty of good things out there for half the price.

I love this tester! Haven't really had a chance to run any insulation tests as of yet... But have been playing around with it on a job. Currently demoing out old wiring and decided to test out the megger. So I tested a like that was looking find that was to be removed and found several locations that were staples too har when originally installed. The remaining features are exactly as I would expect from fluke. I used this tester and my old ddm to messure the voltage in a panel I was having issues with and the measurements were spot on!I would recommend this to any electrician or building maintaince guy that needed to run insulation testing and needed a good ddmUPDATEThis last week 1/18/13 had a fire job at a hotel had to megger out every branch circuit from the 3rd to the 1st fl and feeder from the 7th to the 1st fl and this tester preformed above and beyond expectations. It operated non stop for 13+ hours of testing with no changing of battiers. A coworker of mine was testing at another job site with an older hand crank model and had only 30 or so circuits to test and it took 2 full working days... I was able to test out more circuits with more accurate readings in less time with no issues. This is by far my favorite DDM tester!
