Hello from Argentina! Sitting in the lounge waiting to board to head home via Arkansas.

We spent Christmas in the rainforest then went to Iguazu Falls for 2 Days. The falls were absolutely gorgeous.


My wife as we were on the helicopter to go over the falls



The falls During our 6 mile 18 flights of stairs 100 degree wander through the jungle



The falls from the air.

Yahiko- is their a significant difference between these two Klein Multimeter's? One shows True RMS, but I don't really understand what it means.

If you doing any type of dirty AC I would get the one that does True RMS.
Things like dimmers and battery backups would give a dirty AC.

Here is a good explanation from Fluke.

What is true-rms?

Interesting read. Thanks for the link. I don't know if I will need something that accurate, I'm assembling a small tool bag for when I head back to PR next week.

Well you might be dealing with more inverters and a true RMS may be handy.
