I ended up going with the Mastech MS8229 (one I posted). Actually it ended up being a Christmas present. I just got it the other day as it was on back order. It seems pretty well built solid unit. I love that it comes with a temperature probe. I've had many instances when I would have liked to have a meter with a temp probe on it and now I do. The other meters are nifty too (lumens, decibel meter, etc.). Another neat feature is when you turn the dial to a specific meter, it lights up what terminals to plug your probes into. I've made that mistake twice with harbor freight meters, and while its not an expensive mistake, its annoying.
