I'll add a question to this since my DMM is inadequate and don't have that high
voltage probe yet:
Steve: With your Fluke and high voltage probe, is there a mode where you can
detect peak voltage? I would think this could be used instead of
a o'scope to detect "overload" conditions where there are super high
voltage spikes which in turn cause burn-out.

Also, to anwser John's question: No you can't use the high votlage probe to
measure current. There is like a gazillion ohm resistance in it.
