Agreed, I do miss borrowing my father's ex bt meter. Although it was my fault really, I did have it on a permanent loan, til testing an earth at a mains socket for continuity, that was supposed to have been isolated! (Always check personally, before trusting those who really should have known aargh). I did replace it though via ebay, but use my own cheapo one now for car use.

Disclaimer, I should state, I dont normally go near mains, except very basic things for my own use. If the mains needs a meter, it is time for me to step back, and call in my father (retired time served spark).

But this below is what bt replaced the avo 8 with.
