Fluke 187 True RMS Multimeters+Eneloops?

Essexman · Jun 28, 2008

Hi guys

I have a battery question for you.

We use a number of Fluke 187 True RMS Multimeters at work and I would like to know if it is possible to run them on Sanyo Eneloop Rechargeable AA batteries??

The main reasons for using Eneloops would be to save on purchasing costs, and to save on waste disposal costs (all batteries on our site have to be disposed of via recycling/special waste company).

Any thoughts?

Cheers

If the battery light comes on, you know they are not working, so why not use them. Realistically, they are going to work just fine. Most devices would be designed to work over most of the typical Alcaline discharge curve, i.e. 0.9 - 1.5V ... which covers the range of the Eneloops which are around 1.2-1.3 most of their life.
