When I built my K1 and K2 I used a 4 1/2 digit bench multi-meter, it's quite
old but I was able to get it calibrated for free.
Since then I mostly use a very cheap 3 1/2 digit LCD hand held unit that cost the same as a replacement MN1604 battery! It claims
0.5% basic accuracy and is just fine for pretty much everything I need. I always have the fallback to the bench unit, but since
I can no longer get it calibrated (except a significant expense), it's lost much of it's higher specification
(basic accuracy when calibrated of 0.2% on DC ranges).
Unless you really need AC current and difficult to maintain specifications, I
don't think you will regret a cheap meter.
