Simple question (yet one I can't seem to find an answer to in the forums) - can someone recommend a good meter for testing output and/or a source to buy it? Thanks in advance!

That isn't a simple question. How much do you want to spend for one? What kind of power levels do you need? What kind of accuracy is required? Expect to spend at least $200 for one.

Click to expand...

What kind of meter are you looking for...

A Digital MultiMeter... for checking Resistance, Amperage and Voltage... :-?
Those can be found all over the internet and even Radio Shack

Or a Laser Power Meter.... :-?

Thanks, Lasersbee - that's pretty much exactly what I'm looking for... We have quite a few laser displays that we use for DJ/KJ etc here and now that we're branching out into the ILDA world soon I would really like to be able to confirm output on the new systems we will be buying (when you're spending $1k plus on a laser, atleast if you're me, you want the specs to be on! :)

Thanks for the tip!
