Hi - I've been using a fairly low end digital multimeter (Meterman
16XL) for many years now. It works fine - and gets the job done most
of the time. But it just isn't as accurate as I would like, and I
really wish it was auto ranging. Recently, I have been given some
money to spend on equipment. So - I have $500 to spend on a new
multimeter for myself.
Right now - I'm thinking Fluke 189:

Any opinions? I feel like Fluke is pretty much the ultimate when it
comes to multimeters - but then again, it's been a while since I've
bought any test equipment, and I've never purchased anything quite
this high end.
I'm not sure if I'd get the computer connection for it or not -
depends on how much extra that costs. It looks like without it the 189
goes for $400 or so. Not sure how much it goes for with it. Anyways -
where would I buy such a beast? I'm in Champaign, Illinois, USA.
Well, thanks for any advice you can lend me!
