Or buy expensive and get threaded. Tools like critical screwdrivers I insist on WiHa. But for risky work (like salt water) it is absurd to believe a Fluke can tolerate it any better than a Magnificent Golden Dragon. I Did drop the Fluke six years ago. It went to the Fluke hospital for three weeks and a hundred twenty dollars. Some things are worth the premium. It's a matter of VALUE not cost. Some folks get the two words confused.
Laff-Top. A local offered me his "beee UUU tee full HP laptop". Starts right up when it's plugged-in. Never tried Windows VISTA before. Special deal only 350 dollars. Computers are stupidly expensive down here. Yes this was written on Niner's Fartsmone.
