Digital multimeter
Fellow C4 wrenchers- I have a new in-the-package digital multimeter that was given to me some time ago, and have no need for. It is a cheapie, Harbor Freight, but I want to give it to someone who can use it, I'll pay the postage.

I have about 3 of in my tool box at work. They are cheap and cheerful. I've diagnosed many an issue with those meters. If you know how to use one, the work just fine. I always test my meter for proper function before use, just as a fail safe. If you break one, it is only 5 bucks. I think the fuses for a Fluke cost more than that.

For your info and for anyone else who has need, HF often has coupons in various places for a free digital mulitmeter with any purchase. They even include battery and work pretty well. I have used one frequently on electrical gremlins on my Vette and keep one with my tools in the car. I also have one in my Jag for the same reason and have gotten several others that I have given to folks who I have helped that had electrical problems. Nice to have around the house, too.

is over 20 years old and works fine. Battery lasts about five years.
And the Fluke shuts itself off after a while so you don't drain the
battery. The one at work is about 14 years old.
