It's been awhile since I last sifted
the offerings for utility grade instruments.
I see it's pretty difficult to 'avoid'
some of the extras.
Let's see if I can simplify a recommendation:

Here's another offering that ships from the
US.

I bought a couple of similar offerings
about a year ago and added them to the
toyboxes in a couple of our
rural fire stations. You can pretty
much ignore these 'whistle' selections
except, of course, for good 'ol Ohms.
Emacs!
This instrument does include
thermocouple based temperature measurement
which may be handy.
If anyone picks one up and finds it
falls short of expectations . . .
I'll buy it from you.

out of that stuff?"

To give you young whippersnappers some perspective, my 1st portable True
RMS digital meter was far cheaper than typical lab grade instruments of
the day, had an LED display (about 30 minutes on the battery), was
VOM-only, and cost $200. In 1975 dollars. So....
