content: So I took apart my Brymen bm829s to see if I could lube up the selector switch and needless to say I did not take pics and was side tracked in mid repair and now I am not sure of the switch timing or oriantation. Any one with tear down pics of meter in the off position would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for the help.

content: You are a life saver, thank you so much. its nice to see someone willing to help out a stranger that did something stupid. Do you have a store? I see you are a brymen dealer, do you sell other things?

content: Quote from: autotech1975 on May 06, 2016, 02:24:54 amI am the distributor for Brymen in most of South America. Unfortunately there isn't much interest in anything other than Fluke or the cheapest crap you can find. I am still trying to get things going here. I also am a solar energy system installer in Chile.I became interested in Brymen after seeing some comments here on the forums and after having bad experiences with some other brands. After buying a few Brymen models I deiced to try and push them here in South America. I was impressed with them and started recommending Brymen BEFORE I became a distributor. Many people have accused or implied that I only give Brymen praise because I make money from it. It is actually the other way around. I give them praise and have made nothing yet. I have helped others sell more Brymens than I will for a while it seems.

content: i agree they are great meters and you cant beat the price. You get good quality for a good price. I like my fluke as well but when you price an 87V next to a brymen and compare features, I would buy two brymens for the price of one fluke. Again thank you for your help.
