**** not aids!!!

that will work fine

i wouldnt even spend that much if you are not going to use this daily/weekly

when you get a higher up DMM you get faster more accurate numbers

my friends fluke will read voltages/ohms fast and accurate

my $15 ebay DMM will read 4.01-3.89 ohms and vary alot but you will get the idea

the fluke will read 3.954 and stay there

just get a cheap one if you dont need to make a livign with it

grab that and you will be fine. i got one of these and happy i didn't spend over $50 for a quick meter to check voltages and ohmloads.

the one you have is fine and will not cause an issue

I heart my fluke, but i also have a cheapo radioshack DMM thats smaller than my wallet i keep in my truck. Both of them work fine.
