I had a GoldLine SPL162R for a while, it was good... if you are looking for a nice meter, they can be had for probably $200 online somewhere. I sold mine for roughly that. I have a TermLab now, and along with the laptop I had to purchase, I have invested as much as $1,000 just for this measurement system. Again though, I am very very serious about what I do, and it is an essential necessity like Dan said.
good luck either way //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
