The decision last evening: Vacuum the house or take Duncan for a walk.

My choice:


Of course, then I still had to vacuum!

Was there really a choice?

This is the option on that link you sent:



Klein, and my Extech use what they call the K type. (See the K on the connector)



But what's confusing is that the one in your link also says K type, but it's connector option is not the same.
Yeah, I noticed that as well. Designed for a different instrument. Blade set up. They aren't that expensive, it would be cool to have one on each wheel and a readout in a truck. If you towed a lot, lived in the mountains or something like that. It would be handy. But they would wear with the pad. It would be an added expense.

Personally I'd like to see the difference in temps between ceramic semi metallic pads. You could also determine how hard the rear brakes are working compared to the front. Not sure what else I would use them for.

Looked around to see if Fluke could read a grounded enclosed K and if they had an adapter...no luck.

I have the same Extech meter at work, and got out the thermocoupler. This one is just banana clips, so maybe that's a possibility. Too bad the meter doesn't have "zones".

I got one of these pressure washers. HD has it on sale for 40 dollars off right now...and it has good reviews. So, I (two year) warrantied up, and bought it.

Personally, - found it's better to wait until they're inactive therefore retracted.... unless they deserve a beheading.
