Along with the "BEEP" feature, a backlit display might be useful.

Picture checking something roadside, on your Vanagon, at night.

My most recent meter purchase has a backlit display but no audio
continuity check. On that note.....

Of the same brand meter (re-brands I assume), between the one
purchased ~ 5 years ago and the same brand purchased this year, I've
noticed a real decline in the feel of quality. Especially on the
rotary switch.

Good used Fluke maybe?
