I saw some Fluke's at Sears - for around ~$100. and some Simpson DMMs for a similiar price. I'll probably get one in that price range which I hope indicates a decent gauge. It's so frustrating to go into a store and find they're sold out of the thing I want. It just boggles my mind that a store would be sold out of a product - some sell out often and to me the easiest thing is to keep enough stuff on the shelf so customers don't walk out empty handed.

SOrry 'bout the rant.

Anyway - I'll get a DMM that will read dc current as well as the more common readings -

Thanks again for everyone's help on troubleshooting my GP system- I'm convinced something inside the relay is flakey and hopefully the dealer won't give me a hardtime & exchange it without a fight.

DMM can be hard to read the slope, or change over time.

A fast-reading DMM, especially with the analog bar graph
(like the Fluke 8x series) works fairly well for that.
Cheap DMM's might convert slower, they might be harder to use.
