I've been looking at a couple of DMMs. There is the INNOVA and the Mastech. Those are the 2 contenders for me right now. I'm gonna sell my automotive (bluepoint/snapon) one and use the money to grab one of those. Luckily my crappy Harbor Freight one (only spent $7 on it) has an Hfe reader. In case anyone wanted to see the two.

Have you seen the specs of the VC97?
It as it all...

I think you'll be happy with any of the three. Just pick it and click it.

Another vote for 1000pf, box caps tend to get larger then 'standard' at usually about 220nf.  Pretty sure you CAN get standard size 1uf box caps but they generally are quite expensive (I've looked into it :D)

I've noticed the same my self. I got a couple of 680nf WIMA box caps off a board and they were just about the same size as most the 1uf box. I work for a German company and they tend to pay the extra $$ for the good parts. So Thanks all for the help!
