i find them pretty handy to have around
especially if you want to do something that may be a little dangerous to the
meter, like give one to a friend who is new to electronics who then tries to
measure the current going through his spark plug say.

i also like them because i can have 5 of the things so if i want one odds
are it wont be quite as far away as it could possibly be ;->
