Anybody know how to change battery? I just received it yesterday, new. Nothing wrong with battery at the moment. Yes, I have an instruction manual, the instructions show a battery door. This meter has no battery door. Yes, I contacted Fluke, They just sent me a picture of the battery door in my user manual, useless. I hate to pry on the case to try to open, but, I don't see any other way? The battery and fuses don't need to be changed at the moment, but, they will someday. Anybody have experience with this? The thing cost 300 bucks, I don't want to break it, right out of the box.

I know, I can take a car apart, but, can't figure out how to replace battery in multimeter. I never said I was the sharpest tack in the box.

OK, have a good laugh, I'm supposed to remove the yellow rubber case to get at the battery door. I thought the yellow rubber case was part of the meter ( shaking head ), how sharp is that? I need a beer.
