What are the differences to pick between the Fluke 117 and the Fluke 115? My intended use would for ham radio and kit-building of electronic kits.

The 117 adds • VoltAlert™ technology for non-contact voltage detection • AutoVolt automatic ac/dc voltage selection Both are handy but not essential. Be aware of none of these 'electrician' Flukes (115/116/117) read milliamps or microamps -- essential for electronics troubleshooting & design work but unnecessary for electrician tech work. That said, when reading current in amps they do seem to read accurate down to around at least 0.010 amps (10 milliamps) or so.

Can this multimeter be used on vehicles for a parasitic load test? I don't want to spend over $400 for the Fluke 88 as it is for personal vehicle use

it has been used on motorbikes for sure. It just needs to be in amp mode. If you're doing parasitic load, then you're focused on DC Amps. The 117 has up to 6, while the 88 has up to 10. I don't see a big issue as you're just doing parasitic, not actual use. If anything actually pulls more than 6, you'll blow the internal fuse and have to replace it, but that's about it. Shouldn't be a problem(I've just tested mine on my car and it works).

what is the range of the capacitor that can be tested in this model

hope this helps. Range/Resolution: 1000 nF / 1 nFRange/Resolution: 10.00 μF / 0.01 μFRange/Resolution: 100.0 μF / 0.1 μFRange/Resolution: 9999 μF / 1 μFRange/Resolution: 100 μF to 1000 μFAccuracy: 1.9% + 2Range/Resolution: > 1000 μFAccuracy: 5% + 20%

Can this multimeter be used for an Automtive Tech?

While this multimeter can do plenty of things for automotive. Most serious mechanics get the 87 or 88 series.

best multimeter for one-handed operate

The best multimeter for one-handed operate The response speed is fast, the reading is accurate, and the usage is wide. It is worth buying for advanced users, highly recommended Buyers need to note that it can correctly measure the LED conduction, but it still cannot light up the LED even when using a 9V battery. To light up the LED, you need to purchase Fluke 18B+ Even so, it is still an excellent multi-meter. Even if I have 3 different models of Fluke, I still think it is worth using it to help me at work. In addition, as a user who has used Fluke for more than 20 years, my experience is For fast response + accuracy, not care price, please buy the 17x series To consider economical and cheap, please buy 1x+ or 10x series To consider accurate, fast and reliable without caring about the size & price, please buy 87V To strike a balance between price, response speed, and accuracy, Its 11x series

Beware of hasty packaging during deal season. Great product.

Great product, sent ubboxed and without essential accessory during deal period. Puts a negative idea about the seller. Item quality is excellent, as is expected of Fluke as a brand, with clear, large display and all measurements within fairly tight tolerance of expected values.
