One in #1 post is more than sufficient for average person doing miscellaneous measurement around vehicle and house/barn....
Have two digital meters one cheap, one expensive....Have two analog meters, one cheap, one expensive... But for automotive/tractor work (no computers) I grab this first.....

That can lead you to think something is ok but it is not. Some things like relays for flashers need a specific voltage, something over 10v. If you are in the dark under a dash and the bulb lights up you think it is good, but it is not as the stupid blinkers will still not flippin blink. So you figure it is the flasher, you buy another and it does the same thing. You can't take back electrical parts so now you just get another one, they are cheap enough, it does not work, well hell the light lights up. No way all could be bad. So you start looking for bad grounds....it has to be that right. Only at the end when you can't figure out why the stupid thing will not work do you run a new wire from the stupid battery straight to the flasher and it works. But the "12v" wire that plugs into the flasher will not work.
Most crazy thing I have ever found.
