    Best Least Expensive Multimeter?

    I'm in the market for a new multimeter and I think it's time to spend something closer to $100 rather than the $10 I have been spending on disposable ones that crap out after 6 months to a year and I figure this would be the place to ask as to what would be a good multimeter in that price range? I do mostly small, consumer, electronic repair.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hands down the Fluke 17B+.

    True, you can get higher count meters with more features for the same price, but the Fluke meets its CAT rating.
    "We have offered them (the Arabs) a sensible way for so many years. But no, they wanted to fight. Fine! We gave them technology, the latest, the kind even Vietnam didn't have. They had double superiority in tanks and aircraft, triple in artillery, and in air defense and anti-tank weapons they had absolute supremacy. And what? Once again they were beaten. Once again they scrammed [sic]. Once again they screamed for us to come save them. Sadat woke me up in the middle of the night twice over the phone, 'Save me!' He demanded to send Soviet troops, and immediately! No! We are not going to fight for them."

      If you are new to this forum, we can help a lot more if you please post clear focused pictures (max resolution 2000x2000 and 2MB) of your boards using the manage attachments button so they are hosted here. Information and picture clarity compositions should look like this post.

      We respectfully ask that you make some time and effort to read some of the guides available for basic troubleshooting. After you have read through them, then ask clarification questions or report your findings.

      Please do not post inline and offsite as they slow down the loading of pages.
