      Recently I had the chance to use some bluetooth Fluke voltmeters, and I thought you might like to know how they compared with the Mooshimeter.

      – The Fluke BT multimeters are bulky and really expensive, but also phenomenally well made. No surprise there.
      – The specialised Fluke senders are smaller and less expensive, but only capable of one type of measurement (eg DC voltage).
      – The resolution of the Fluke voltage senders is only 0.1mV
      – Both Fluke and Mooshimeter have really good range and maintain a connection under difficult conditions (lots of interference, lots of metal between sender and receiver).
      – The Fluke senders eat batteries in standby and have to be switched off manually. In my set-up the senders are difficult to access, so this is a significant inconvenience.
      – The connection process after switching on the Fluke receiver is slow.
      – With multiple Fluke senders there is no good way to know which is which. The order they are listed on the receiver can change each time it is switched on.
      – The Flukes can transmit logged data wirelessly.
      – Last but not least, the Fluke app requires a ridiculous number of permissions including full access to private phone data and to the network. Furthermore Fluke’s privacy policy is worthless. I don’t know if the Fluke app does do anything malicious, but the fact that it could is worrying.

      So in conclusion… go Mooshimeter!

      This is great, thank you for comparing these! Do you mind if I copy this over as a testimonial? We actually haven’t tried out the Fluke units yet. Do they have onboard logging features?
