Do I need a new Fluke clamp meter?

Is there something you need to do that the meter you already have is not adequate for? If what you have works, then there's no reason to upgrade.

"Bob E."

that is pure witch doctor mentality.

- you are alluding to here ??

You going blind ??

And a TROLL by any other name smells just as putrid as this s*it.

Hope Willy forgives me ....

"Need" is a subjective term.

If what you want is to make a repetitive job easier, I would recommend (without personal experience) a good hand held oscilloscope such as Fluke makes. They are not cheap. With that, you need a current transformer with a load resistor called a Rogowski coil equivalent. That is the clamp-onm and sensing part of a clamp-on meter. Record the start-up current waveform. Then you have a record of the waveform you can data process to your heart's content instead of relying upon someone else's cryptic algorithm.

That's the "Doctor Strangelove" mentality. ;-)

Read Fluke application note 1629920 and work it out.
