My meter needs are simple. The $20 (or so) meter I bought at Walmart
for my tool bag does as good a job for me as the expensive Fluke does
in my home tools. I had a cheap meter from Harbor Freight that did
not cut it because it did NOT have an audible for the ground.  A lot
of what I use a meter for seems to be checking grounds and being able
to hear it helps a lot.
For measuring voltage drop, battery voltage, alternator output
voltage or the resistance in the temp2 switch they all work well.
