What is the better Thermal imager /meter fluke 279 FC or Flir CM174... 

I'm not happy with my Flir CM83....third time it's been returned and I've used it only
20 minute total...  I'll go into more details if others want to hear my story.

Sad to read this...
Of course we want.

Perhaps in an own thread?
"Flir CM83 problems" or so?

I could start a new thread of people were interested in this POS CM83 meter that almost killed me just a few time!!!??  I asked flir to upgrade me to the cm174 but am not sure if the cm174 or cm83 would be best...

Comment, suggestions?
