DMM other than Flukes that chirp on diode/transistor test?

(1/6) > >>

jayjr1105:
Anyone know of any other meters that chirp/beep while testing a good diode?  Maybe small but I find this to be almost an essential feature.  Looking around the $100 mark. 

Wytnucls:
Uni-t UT161E

Open circuit voltage: About 3V
For normal diodes, the buzzer will beep once.
For short circuit, the buzzer will beep for a long time.

The 12 dollar Habotest will do it too.

At first I thought you were crazy, I have a 61E and it doesn't do this.  Then I noticed you said 161E.  Thanks for the recommendation.  Do you think the new UT61B+ will support that as well?  It's just a 6000 count vs 22000

How about the upper end Habotest?  Would prefer autoranging.
