This will be a box opening and teardown of the Hioki DT4282 multimeter. The Hioki DT4282 multimeter is a high-end multimeter. It could be the best meter for audio work. It has a bandwidth of 100 kHz and is a 60k count meter! It also has a filter and can read dB and dBm, and has many more features. It is a very fast meter with a nice display. I'll compare it to the Fluke 189 as it is a great Multimeter, and is my favorite Fluke meter. The title of this video is 'Hioki DT4282 vs Fluke 189 multimeter; box opening and teardown'. #HiokiDT4282 #Fluke189 #FlukevsHioki #highcountmultimeter #kaiweetsmultimeter #DT4282

My favorite feature of the Fluke 189: Say you're doing a bunch of measurements and writing them down as you go. With the 189 you just press the yellow button and then range/save. The measurement is saved in the meter. When you're done you take the meter and turn the dial all the way clockwise to view/mem. From there you can scroll up and down through all the values you saved. When you're done just press the round blue button and they up/yes button to clear the memory. With the VFDs I work on I can do all my resistance checks without stopping then go back to my computer and write down all the values. No memorizing values, no putting down my probes and taking notes.

@KissAnalog 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for that great field use value! I agree, that type of logging can be very helpful. The Hioki will do this too and I think there's some advantages with their system, but then it is what you are used to as well. I am not a fan of the 289 replacement of the 189 (I have both and I prefer the 189), but I now prefer the Hioki over both of them. I like the size and better crisper display. The 289 display is actually kind of crappy - IMHO of course;)

You are right..the Hioki is an awesome meter. Built quality is one of a kind. When i look at the accuracy of the meters.. i‘m quite surprised about the fluke. Never heart about an DMM with 0.025% dc accuracy ..for example. The specs are grazy.And this meter is „obsolete „? No way ! Would be be interesting to see if the fluke is in the specs …and how to bring it back meeting the specs.

Thank you! This Hioki is an awesome meter. It is too bad that they discontinued the 189. The 289 is a huge meter. I did find a place where you can get the 189, and I have a link to that now in the description. I'd get the Hioki though if I were buying;)

Looks very nice and you certainly get your moneys worth with the number of chips inside! Any theories about why it is so complex (compared to the Fluke, or the functional complexity)? Even if we assume the big chip is just a general purpose LCD driver and all the functions are implemented with general purpose ICs, there does seem to be an awful lot of circuit for a multimeter!

@KissAnalog 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks John! I think it is because of the extra features and multi level filter. Also the extra digits/higher count probably needed support circuitry for the higher accuracy. I like the meter, but is expensive.

@SpinStar1956 2 жыл бұрын

I was going to buy a Fluke 289 but with the bad battery reviews decided to hold off. This meter here is REALLY impressive for build quality; we have kinda normalized our expectations to China mediocrity, so seeing high-end Japanese design and manufacture is akin to looking at German car engineering. I did not see a video on the electrical performance; is there one? I was hoping to get a meter that could also do data recording but mostly need high (as I can afford) DC voltage/Ohms accuracy so could probably cobble something else together to do the recording because normally if you're trying to trap a failure, accuracy is usually not a problem because the anomaly will usually push things way off. Anyway, Eddie would you still consider this to be the must-get for its performance category because I'd like to get something but need to spend my retirement dollars wisely(!)? Thanks so much for all your videos and all you do for us! 73...

i have a Fluke 189. It was money well invested. It is with me around 13+ years and it's quality electronic wise and functions are superb, I use it a lot daily, it's by far my favorite meter. But the downside that made me a little disappointed from it and made me not to want another Fluke to buy is that its displays fades with time too much that is kind of hard ro read to a point that now I have to use it with it's light display on most of the time. But one thing disappointed me the most it's the not so good quality plastic. The rotary switch stud broke just from usage, never used it hard and one day just felt mushy and broke, never happened to me even on cheap meters. Then the plastic face also cracked from the only time it falled from the hood of my car, about 50cm high because of vibration of engine. My guess is aged plastic. Then all screws don't grab the plastic no more. Plastic is so delicate. And the plastic stand just came out just from standing too much I guess. So I'm here because I kind of want to switch to this Hioki you're showing. I know the japanese are good for detail and this meter looks awesome. Thanks for your review!

I just have bought a Hioki 4261 for my work at home. I am not sure if I should exchange it to the 4282 because it has better ranges. I will need to see if I can stretch the budget though for personal use. My old one has been from the late 1990 for around the house. It was time for an upgrade. The 4282 has a lot of chips - this is crazy. Many DMM are a one chip solution.
