Hi.

Please help me by pointing out what functions are essential for a pin-specific multi-meter. I apologize in advance as I'm electronics illiterate. I intend to buy this tool from my local Home Depot-equivalent (Menard's), and they list one meter on their website as follows:

Functions Tested: AC Current; AC Voltage; Amperage; Capacitance; Continuity; Current; DC Current; DC Voltage; Frequency; Resistance; Temperature; Voltage

This particular model is $100. That's five-times more than I expected to spend, so hopefully the above meter is much more featured-out than I need.

Anyway, if you have a certain model that has served you well, I'd love to know what it is specifically.

Thanks in advance.

J
