WTB: Good Multimeter What's a Good Multimeter to Buy? What's Everybody Using?
Are the $10-$20 Ones at Local Auto Part Stores Fairly Accurate? I Only Have Experience w/ Using Fluke Meters...

im a Fluke dealer, its the only multimeter i trust. if you need one let me know.
its over 200 for a Fluke. i also have some Amprobe Multimeters in stock that are good as well and run around 150. both will last.

Fluke is known as the best and when I was travelling all over the world fixing CNC machines, I had four of them go out on me. I got tired of paying the $200+ for new Flukes at the time and bought an $80 B&K precision meter, which never broke with all of my travelling and still works today 12 years later

Yesterday's Sears flyer had Craftsman DMM with freq,
temperature and capacitance for $29.99 (looks like it has
a red rubber boot but I could have been seeing things).
That's not bad for freq and temp, both of those being
useful on cars.

I work on computers in video games for a living, and I generally use a 20-30 dollar radio shack meter. Every couple of years when the batteries die, I just buy a new meter. I don't avoid fluke meters because of the price, but because of their size. The damn things are just too bulky.
