Had to choose between a Fluke 179 and a Klein CL800 for field work

I was about to drop $400 on a Fluke 179 for troubleshooting LRUs on the flight line. Then a senior tech pulled me aside and said save your money, get the Klein CL800 for under $150. He showed me how the Klein does LoZ, capacitance, and min/max just fine for most avionics work. I picked it up three months ago and it's handled every 28V DC and 400Hz AC test I've thrown at it. Only downside is the leads feel a bit cheaper, but I swapped those out for under $20. Anyone else run into the Fluke vs Klein debate on the line?
