I agree, but even more so, is the capacitance measuring option, like
Clive also said. This is especially important since the SMD caps usually
aren't marked (my cheapos aren't anyway), and it's really the pits
if/when you spill some together on the bench and then start vehemently
denting your forehead with your palm.
