as an auto tech for most of my adult life i sued a multi meter on a daily basis
i have a blue point meter(the lower end snap on brand but still high quality with out the bigger price tag)
i worked with guys who used the snap on name brand and fluke name brand meters
there are no differences between theirs and mine,they all looked the same and had all the same functions and all worked equally well,mine just wasnt expensive.
mine also came with more leads and probes than theirs did.
it has a really nice dc inductive amp lead,used it many times and it works well to this day(my meter is about 20 years old)
you do get what you pay for,especially when it comes to anything electronic
if its something you are going to use every day to make a living with,then i have no issues with buying the high end stuff. but if its something you are only going to use a few times a year then i dont see a need to spend that kind of money when there are less expensive versions that will work for the occaisonal user.
just like SNAP ON tools vs CRAFTSMAN tools.
yes they will both get the job done,but if your going to be using them every day and using them hard to make a living,then paying more for something that wont need to be replaced is well worth it.
