I sold all of my older test kit when I moved out here, except the Tek 2465A and a couple of other bits... cathartic.
Someone was selling off Keithley 6.5 digit 2015THD DMMs for under 300 quid (notice went up on the EEVBLOG forum) - got one of those. Still a current model, selling at USD 5,000...
They are now around at 350 quid - all are ex-ATE, so previously rackmounted thus minus their tilting bail, but otherwise perfect.
Mine was still in calibration. Overkill for most folk, but I do mainly micropower IoT stuff these days, so for me it made sense - the MSP430 uP boards I use idle at about 13uA - every tiny bit of current saved extends the life of the CR2032s that drive them and the 2015 has 10nA resolution - perfect for this task.
That beast you referenced has ONE PICO AMP resolution. Insane!
