OT: tool to use on porsche, looking for an ohm meter recommendation Options

[brant]

Well I'm needing to buy yet another OHM meter

I really only use them for continuity, OHMs, and Amperage

I bought a better one (not harbor freight) but have had bad luck with it also

Does anyone have a brand recommendation or personal experience of a decent OHM meter that will last more than 8 months?

just something that will survive living in a tool box and at the track and last a while
I don't need precision accuracy
durability to last in a tough environment would be nice

obviously I don't need a fluke
price is a factor too
so Ideally I would love someone's positive experience with a 20-40$ unit

thanks in advance

We aren't making very precise measurements on our cars. The questions usually are: "Is there any voltage? Does it connect to ground?" And basically any POS multi-meter is good enough for that. A nice cheap one you can keep in the trunk of the car and don't care about it wandering off certainly is an appealing notion.

I asked my step-father (an electrical engineer) for a recommendation and wound up with a medium-range Fluke meter about 20 years ago. Still works fine, though I did have to replace the 9V battery at least once or twice.
