[RE-wrenches] Multi-meters

[Jerry Shafer]

Will, Wrenches
Fluke make quite a few, the 381 and 376 are both 1000vdc/vac, they do ac
and dc amps also which most cheaper units only do AC amps.  There are more
too, l have found its best to stay away from some of the less known meters
brands, my scopes are even higher but so is the cost.
