00:00If you've ever tossed a multimeter into a tool bag and heard that sickening crack a few minutes
00:04later, this one's for you. I went digging through the listings and pulled together the 5 best
00:09carrying cases for multimeters right now, all of them under 15 bucks, all of them with thousands
00:14of sales and near-perfect ratings. Let's get into it. First up is this EVA multimeter storage case
00:21built for the Fluke F117C, F115C, F116C, and F175C. The thing that sells me on it is the
00:29molded EVA shell, it's rigid enough that you can drop a wrench on it and your meter walks away fine,
00:34but it's still light enough that you don't notice it in your bag.
00:38Inside there's a shaped foam cradle so the meter isn't rattling around, plus room for your leads.
00:43At $11.21, it's the cheapest one on this list, and with nearly 5,000 sold and a straight 5
00:49-star
00:49rating, people clearly aren't sending these back. If you own one of those flukes, this is the easy
00:55pick. Number 2 is the universal shockproof EVA carry case, and the key word there is universal.
01:02It fits the F115C, F116C, and F117C, but it also handles the 15B+, 17B+, and 18B+, so
01:11if you got
01:12more than 1 meter floating around the shop, or you're not totally sure which model you own,
01:16this is the safe bet. The zipper is a heavy-duty double pull, the interior has a mesh pocket for
01:21probes and spare fuses, and the outer shell shrugs off water and dust. 1218, 4.9 stars,
01:28almost 5,000 sold. Solid, no drama choice. Third on the list is the EVA hard protect box
01:36made for clamp meters, specifically the Fluke 317, and it also fits the F319 and F365.
01:43Clamp meters are awkward shapes, and that's exactly why a generic pouch never works for them.
01:48This one's molded around the jaw, so the meter sits flush with no pressure on the clamp mechanism.
01:54That matters, because a bent jaw is a dead clamp meter. It's $12.12, it's got a perfect 5-star
02:01rating across almost 5,000 orders, and honestly, if you're carrying a clamp meter to job sites,
02:06this is cheap insurance. Fourth up we've got the carrying case built for the Fluke T5-1000
02:12in T5-600 electrical testers. If you use a T5 daily, you know they take a beating,
02:18they live in truck consoles, get dropped off ladders, and generally have a hard life.
02:23This case gives it a proper home with a padded contour that holds the tester and the leads
02:28without cramming them together. It's compact too, so it slides into a tool pouch instead of
02:33eating a whole bag. $1,153, 5 stars, over $4,700 sold. Great value for something you'll use for
02:42years. And rounding it out at number 5, this hard case with the interior mesh pocket.
02:48This is the one I'd grab if you carry accessories, the mesh lid pocket is genuinely useful for test
02:53leads, alligator clips, thermocouples, spare batteries, all the little stuff that usually
02:58ends up loose at the bottom of your bag. The shell is a semi-rigid zip-up with a soft
03:03lining inside so it won't scuff your display. It's the priciest here at $13.18, but you're
03:09paying for organization, not just protection. 4.9 stars and over $4,300 sold says it delivers.
03:17All 5 links are down in the description, so go grab whichever one fits your meter.
